Award-winning journalist and documentary filmmaker Sebastian Junger discusses war, its effects on soldiers and his latest film project.

Minds of Mountainfilm interviews take place every year at Telluride Mountainfilm festival and feature a selection of the adventurers, artists, change makers, activists and documentary filmmakers who are invited as our special guests. These friends of Mountainfilm represent a diverse and inspiring cadre of thinkers and doers—2015 subjects include one of the world’s most accomplished climbers, the cartoon editor of The New Yorker, Academy Award-winning filmmaker of The Cove and a seasoned war reporter. In these interviews, the Minds of Mountainfilm address issues that matter in their particular realms of experience and expertise—issues that, almost invariably, also matter a great deal to all of us.
