Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center Twentynine Palms Sunset Cinemas will host the worldwide theatrical premiere of the military family documentary “While Time Stands Still” this Saturday, May 12 at 1:30 p.m. Directed by Iraq War Veteran Spouse Elena Miliaresis, this gripping movie tells the story of three military wives during the Iraq War. Miliaresis, who travels to the 29 Palms Marine Corps to meet two wives on the eve of
their husbands’ combat deployment to Iraq with 3 rd Battalion 7 th Marines, follows Brandi Albritton (H&S Company) from Florida and Denneny Cochran (India Company) from Virginia before, during, and after their husbands’ deployments. Through their eyes, the film shows the bravery it takes to survive on the home front during a war when every phone call and every knock on the door can bring doom. Despite the challenges, these young women find the resilience to grow stronger than they ever thought possible. With nearly one hundred family members interviewed over the course of five years, While Time Stands Still exposes the long-term effects of war on families, including PTSD, Postpartum Depression, and, most alarmingly, increased suicide in family members.
