Thank you. You deserve to hear those two words much more than you do. You may not agree with my vote last week, but I'm grateful for the sacrifices you made that let me cast it. May this country never forget that her freedom is a privilege bought by your blood, sweat, and tears.

Each chapter of the movie shows how a different woman is affected by the discovery of a woman's body in a field, until the last chapter doubles back and shows us her haunting final days.

I've never served. It's people like me who should be that much more appreciative to those that do. I am. Thank you.
