War Machine (2017)
General Glen McMahon genießt unter den hochdekorierten amerikanischen Generälen den Ruf, ein echter Rockstar zu sein, einer, der Ergebnisse liefert und keine Kompromisse eingeht. So ist es eigentlich selbstverständlich, dass ihm das Kommando über die Truppen in Afghanistan übertragen wird. Obwohl der Krieg dort als unmöglich zu gewinnen betrachtet wird, ist McMahon fest entschlossen, möglichst bald den Sieg davon zu tragen. Dafür hat er sich eine radikal neue Strategie zurechtgelegt – doch um die in die Tat umzusetzen, müssen er und seine Offiziere und Berater rund um den Globus Allianzen knüpfen, Truppen einsammeln und sich mit Politik und Medien herumschlagen – und dabei darf natürlich auch der Krieg selbst nicht aus den Augen verloren werden oder die Soldaten, die ihn tatsächlich vor Ort in Afghanistan ausfechten…
