When America entered World War II, it faced a dangerous problem.
Millions of soldiers were being sent overseas — but many did not fully understand why they were fighting, or what they were up against. Meanwhile, Nazi Germany had mastered propaganda, shaping narratives with ruthless precision.
The US Army turned to an unexpected weapon.
Frank Capra, one of Hollywood’s most successful directors, was commissioned as an Army officer and given an extraordinary mission: use film to explain the war to American soldiers — and counter enemy propaganda using the enemy’s own footage.
The result was “Why We Fight”, a groundbreaking documentary series that combined captured Axis films, animation, maps, and narration to make the war clear, personal, and unavoidable.
Capra’s films were shown to millions of soldiers and civilians. They shaped morale, hardened resolve, and proved that ideas could be as powerful as armies.
This documentary explores how a man known for optimism and storytelling became one of the most important psychological warriors of World War II — and how Hollywood helped prepare a nation for total war.
This is the story of cameras in uniform — and the director who fought with film.
