His whole nation is celebrating what is the worst day of his life
Nineteen-year-old Billy Lynn is home from Iraq. And he's a hero.
Billy and the rest of Bravo Company were filmed defeating Iraqi
insurgents in a ferocious firefight. Now Bravo's three minutes of
extreme bravery is a YouTube sensation and the Bush Administration
has sent them on a nationwide Victory Tour. During the final hours
of the tour Billy will mix with the rich and powerful, endure the
politics and praise of his fellow Americans - and fall in love.
He'll face hard truths about life and death, family and friendship,
honour and duty. Tomorrow he must go back to war.
