Many children feel ashamed of having such secret thoughts; as they can be harsh or conflict with reality. The episode 'Medical examination' is about the young boy Marco. He is in hospital for a medical examination and has his secret thoughts about the nurse. A very unusual way to tell a teenage story in such a short time.

But this film goes beyond a simple profile. Technical innovation allows us to be 'there' with Nachtwey as he frames his shots. At the same time we see TV's perspective on the same horrific material. As the film unfolds, we see that its calm and carefully constructed style is in harmony with the man himself. We are taken beyond the pictures into the disciplined heart of a rare individual who has paid dearly to bring us 'truth' as he finds it on the battlefields of the world.
