Producer's Statement
Why Extremis
Kendall on the film
"Every veteran story I've been trusted with has taught me the same thing. The hardest fight does not end when the deployment does. It begins when the door closes and the room goes quiet."
"The Keeper was about the weight of staying. Project Extremis is about the moment ordinary sailors became heroes, and the decades they carried it alone afterward."
"If we tell this right, one veteran out there picks up the phone instead of putting something down. That is the only metric that matters to me."
