The film opens ominously with a military widow awakening on the day of her husbands Military funeral. Although, overwhelmed by unimaginable grief, her concern is focused on her now fatherless son. A story set amidst a hero's funeral and the painful ensuing days thereafter. For Right and Freedom places a graphic emphasis on the American Flag and portrays the depth of a marines love of his country, a wife's commitment to bring strength to others who have lost, and a young son awarding a final salute to his fallen father.—Anonymous
