S1.E1 ∙ The Epics

Dr. James Yamazaki studied the effects of the atomic bomb on children and fetuses in Nagasaki, and warns that the danger of nuclear weapons to humanity may be forgotten, but still threatens us.

2-part 2-hour documentary follows the Marines of Delta Company from Kwaut to Baghdad in the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Marine cameramen shooting high definition show the Iraq War as it's never been seen. Follow Capt. Greg Poland as he and his Marines capture an Iraqi colonel, fight the Battle of Basra Bridge, lose a tank crew - and fight their way across the Diyala River Bridge in the Marine Corps' first opposed bridge crossing in a half century. In Bahdad, the Marines take down the regime - and deal with looting and lawlessness in its wake.

Filmmaker Usama Alshaibi returns to Baghdad to reunite with his family after nearly 24 years. This documentary navigates his unique relationship to an Iraq that is very different from the country of his childhood. Usama captures the conflicting reactions to the conditions of life in Baghdad. Through a wide range of opinions and experiences he provides a broad panorama of voices long neglected under Saddam's regime. His cousin Tareef enters the room upon hearing an explosion. "It's a bomb. A Nice Bomb," he explains. The phrase is indicative of his family's nonchalance about their situation. As one young boy put it, "We're Iraqis. It's normal." With humor and resilience Nice Bombs explores Usama's dual role as both Iraqi and American. This Director's Cut of "Nice Bombs" was completed by director Usama Alshaibi 10 years after his trip to his home country. It contains more interviews with Iraqi women and a broader, more detailed view of life in Iraq.
