Pulitzer Prize-winning Lynsey Addario has risked her life to capture the stark realities of war -- from the Middle East and Afghanistan to Ukraine. From National Geographic Documentary Films and Academy Award®-winning filmmakers Chai Vasarhelyi and Jimmy Chin,  Love+War  chronicles Addario’s ascent in the male-dominated world of conflict photography. But her work is dangerous. She's been kidnapped twice while on assignment  in war zones -- a cost she must wrestle with each time she leaves her husband and two sons to go on assignment. Behind the camera, Addario is torn between her unwavering commitment to the essential work of journalism and the powerful, competing demands of motherhood, grappling with what it truly means to follow your calling when it threatens everything you love.
