Served Like a Girl (2017)

"Served Like a Girl," a compelling documentary by director Lysa Heslov, embarks on an intimate journey into the lives of several American women forging their paths from the war-torn landscapes of Iraq and Afghanistan to the often bewildering realm of civilian life. Upon their return, these heroic yet wounded U.S. servicewomen confront a reality seldom acknowledged or understood, marred with the shadows of PTSD, homelessness, shattered families, grave illnesses, physical injuries, and the haunting specter of military sexual abuse. In the face of these daunting challenges, these extraordinary women discover resilience and hope in an unexpected battlefield - the "Ms. Veteran America" competition. Under the guidance of Jas Boothe, the competition's founder and a veteran herself, the women harness the spirit of competition as a tool to reclaim their lost identities and heal from their invisible wounds. "Served Like a Girl" is a cinematic jewel that seamlessly weaves together strands of raw emotion, profound social commentary, and unexpected humor. It's an "Engaging, Honest, and Powerful" portrayal of the female warrior spirit, offering a vivid glimpse into the strength and courage of women who have served and continue to fight battles, both seen and unseen.
