1000 Men and Me: The Bonnie Blue Story

What does it mean to belong to a story larger than yourself? This intimate 2025 documentary chronicles the remarkable journey of the Bonnie Blue flag, a potent Civil War symbol, through the eyes of a single modern-day reenactor. Blending historical investigation with personal reflection, the film explores the complex legacy of heritage, memory, and the search for identity in the American South. More than a history lesson, it’s a quiet, poignant look at the people who keep the past alive, questioning what we choose to carry forward and what we must finally lay to rest.
