Above the Best

Above the Best is based on the #1 Best Selling book South of Heaven using the real footage to create an unprecedented immersive documentary-narrative film. The film tells the story of Apache Fighter Pilot Dan Flores and his year deployment to the most dangerous valley in Afghanistan. A stunning, eye-popping glimpse into the life of an Apache helicopter pilot during his year in the fight in the Hindu Kush Mountains and the Korengal Valley. Through actual, aerial combat footage and corresponding video from soldiers on the ground, the film will bring the audience in the cockpit and on the ground at the same time like no other film in history. See why Army Aviators say they fly “above the best” and the lengths these folks will go to protect each other in the most dangerous place on Earth.
