1971. With the Vietnam War raging, tens of thousands of American soldiers were in open rebellion against the war and the military. In support of this unprecedented rebellion, a group of entertainers led by Jane Fonda and Donald Sutherland toured Asia with a witty, powerful, sharply antiwar show that was seen and wildly cheered by over 60,000 GIs. The film of that historic tour, FTA, disappeared mysteriously after only one week in theaters, never to be seen again--until now. Perfect timing.
