Made with passion, integrity and skill, Blood Stripe is American independent filmmaking at its most effective. It takes on a difficult subject and treats it with an honesty that can't help but capture us from start to finish. Read full review

[Nowlin] makes Blood Stripe a solid, compelling drama about the post traumatic stresses unique to women in combat, a film that — thanks to her stoic performance and intimate, unfussy direction — engenders sympathy but never pity. Read full review

While its storytelling wavers, there’s nothing unsteady about the movie’s overall packaging craftsmanship. Read full review
