Beyond the Invisible: Living with Brain Injury

This 30-minute documentary focuses on three veterans who sustained a
brain injury in combat during Operation Iraqi Freedom. The film is designed to educate
the public, professionals, and advocates about what it means to live with a brain injury.
Although the documentary portrays the challenges of brain injury in a military context, many
of the struggles these veterans discuss are shared by all who experience a brain injury.

Special thanks to the veterans and their families who opened their hearts and homes to us. Talking publicly about a brain injury is not easy for anyone. By reaching out and sharing their experiences, these men and their families have demonstrated the importance of not keeping the topic of brain injury a secret.

DVD copies of Beyond the Invisible are available to the public free-of-charge. The DVD also contains a “Closed Caption” option. Please contact the Brain Injury Association of New York State for more information.

Please note: The film contains explosion scenes. An edited version of the film is available by contacting the Brain Injury Association of NYS.
