from a snowy small town in northern michigan to the mountains of afghanistan and back, where
soldiers come from follows the four-year journey of childhood friends, forever changed by a
faraway war.

a documentary about growing up, where soldiers come from is an intimate look at the young men
who fight our wars and the families and town they come from. returning to her hometown, director
heather courtney gains extraordinary access following these young men as they grow and change from
teenagers stuck in their town, to 23-year-old veterans facing the struggles of returning home.

enticed by a $20,000 signing bonus and the college tuition support, best friends dominic and cole join
the national guard after graduating from their rural high school. after persuading several of their
friends to join them, the young men are sent to afghanistan, where they spend their days sweeping for
roadside bombs. by the time their deployment ends, they are no longer the carefree group of friends
they were before enlisting; repeated bombs blowing up around their convoys have led to the new silent
signature wound of the afghan war, traumatic brain injury, and they have all become increasingly
disillusioned about their mission.

the challenges really begin to surface when they return to michigan to their families and communities
and try to fit back into their daily routines. where soldiers come from looks beyond the guns and
policy of an ongoing war to examine the effect on parents, loved ones and the whole community when
young people go off to fight.
