Stolen Honor is a 45-minute video documentary that was released in September 2004. It features interviews with a number of American men who were prisoners of war in North Vietnam, who contend they suffered increased maltreatment while prisoners as a direct result of John Kerry's Fulbright Hearing testimony in April 1971. The subtitle of the film is Wounds That Never Heal; on the production company's website the complete title is given instead as Stolen Honor: John Kerry's Record of Betrayal. Its name was based on the book Stolen Valor: How the Vietnam Generation Was Robbed of Its Heroes and Its History by B.G. Burkett and Glenna Whitley

The production company's website states that "Stolen Honor investigates how John Kerry's actions during the Vietnam era impacted the treatment of American soldiers and POWs. Using John Kerry's own words, the documentary juxtaposes John Kerry's actions with the words of veterans who were still in Vietnam when John Kerry was leading the anti-war movement."

According to conservative commentator Deroy Murdock,


"It presents POWs who argue that John Kerry's fallacious spring 1971 claims that U.S. atrocities occurred 'on a day-to-day basis with the full awareness of officers at all levels of command' amplified their agony under America's North Vietnamese enemies.

Jordana Horn in The Jewish Daily Forward states that: Budrus [is] a documentary by Julia Bacha that examines one West Bank town’s reaction to Israel’s construction of the security barrier. The town, with a population of 1,500, was set to be divided and encircled by the barrier, losing 300 acres of land and 3,000 olive trees. These trees were not only critical for economic survival but also sacred to the town’s intergenerational history. The film tells the story of Ayed Morrar, a Palestinian whose work for Fatah had led to five detentions in Israeli jails, but whose momentous strategic decision that the barrier would be best opposed by nonviolent resistance had far-reaching ramifications.

Réalisé pour la BBC d'après le document à charge du journaliste anglais Christopher Hitchens Les Crimes de M. Kissinger (publié en France en 2001 chez Saint-Simon), le documentaire d'Eugene Jarecki et Alex Gibney soutient que le lauréat du prix Nobel de la paix doit être tenu pour responsable du maintien des forces américaines au Vietnam après 1968, de l'invasion du Cambodge, du coup d'Etat qui renverse le président chilien Salvador Allende en 1973 et des massacres au Timor-Oriental. Mais pour les deux réalisateurs l'ancien secrétaire d'Etat de Richard Nixon et Gerald Ford n'est pas seulement un politicien cynique prêt à tout pour conquérir puis conserver le pouvoir. Ils affirment que Kissinger est un authentique criminel de guerre. Mais ils se contentent pour cela de clamer la pertinence de l'ouvrage de Christopher Hitchens - le plus souvent avec de longues interventions du journaliste - sans se donner les moyens d'étayer leur thèse.

In Rwanda, a hundred members of the Ukuri Kuganze Association, made up in its majority by survivors of the genocide, and a few of their executioners, freed after having confessed and asked for forgiveness in 2003, meet at a reinsertion center. These executioners are going home, in most cases to the same places where they carried out their crimes, and will have to "face" their victims and ask their forgiveness. In 1994, over a space of just one hundred days, almost a million people were murdered, that makes 10,000 dead per day.
