"Perseverance Is Triumphant! "
<p>Jeremy Zerechak joined the Army National Guard after high school so he could afford film school. He enrolled at Pennsylvania State University where he won several academic awards for his achievements in film. Later, when his unit was ordered to deploy to Iraq Jeremy decided to bring his cameras with him and shoot a documentary of his company’s deployment. During the deployment Jeremy produced three shorts, one that hit festivals that year. After his deployment he turned his sights to the editing process for the 56 hours of footage he shot during his deployment. That film would become Land of Confusion.</p>
