Superheroes is the poignant tale of a war veteran who struggles with the aftermath of the experiencing Iraq. Ben (Dash Mihok) has extensive psychological damage and is in therapy. He meets a young neophyte filmmaker, Nick (Spencer Treat Clark), at one of the sessions who would like to document his story. Mihok and Clark hold screen attention easily. The writing is smart, the presentation is melancholy. Ben’s journey is emotional, his journey touches the heart. The production is compelling and telling. Simply, war is hell. The project was nicely put together.
