When women come marching home
A DOCUMENTARY BY MARCIA ROCK & PATRICIA LEE STOTTER
In honor of Armed Forces Week, CSU Monterey Bay will hold a free community screening and a question-and-answer session with the filmmaker, Marcia Rock at 7 p.m., May 22, at the World Theater on the university campus.

Women make up 14 percent of today's military. That number is expected to double in 10 years. SERVICE portrays the courage of these women, the horrific traumas they face, the inadequate care they often receive on return, and the accomplishments – large and small – they work mightily to achieve. Through compelling portraits, the film shows them wrestling with prosthetics, homelessness, post-traumatic stress and its insidious catalyst, military sexual trauma.
The film is also about the resourcefulness of these women, and how they created a supportive network through social media.
The nation has a new military force. The veterans shown in the film represent the first wave of mothers, daughters and sisters returning home. The power of the documentary is in the intimacy it establishes with them, speaking with them in their kitchens and bathrooms, back yards, classrooms, therapy sessions and super markets. The film aims to wake up a sleeping civilian population.
