Two US soldiers plunge into a suspected enemy combatant tunnel system during the Vietnam War only to awaken unparalleled horrors.
Director's Statement
Sempre Avanti is a story of perseverance. The film is about the obstacles and setbacks that block our paths to our goals and dreams. The film also confronts the daunting reality that sometimes the call to press forward through these obstacles can be more haunting than the obstacles themselves. Thus, Sempre Avanti… always forward.
