The Home Front is the story of two boys in the US and their father, a single dad and US soldier. The boys struggle to adjust when their father is deployed to Afghanistan and they are sent to live with relatives.

Jury comments:
"This production embodies many of the simplest and most powerful elements of storytelling; great subjects that are articulate and emotional, a narrative arc with a transformation - actually two in this story - a bigger issue of both political and social significance embodied in the micro story, strong video and photography and a compelling visual and audio narrative that worked powerfully in concert with each other."
