Winner, Directing Award for U.S. Documentary, Sundance (2026)
“Soul Patrol” is an immersive journey through the identity crisis of what it meant to be a “soul brother” fighting in Vietnam. Director J.M. Harper crafts precious archival footage, reenactments, and testimonies to awaken a history that has disappeared behind narratives of imperial legacy and military stoicism. “Soul Patrol” is a radiant journey through shame and isolation, as Emanuel reunites his team, attempting to heal their common trauma.
