I Am Vanessa Guillen, a documentary based on the life and death of US Army soldier Vanessa Guillen, will release on Netflix on November 17.

Directed by Christy Wegener, the documentary is produced by Christy Wegener, Isabel Castro, Lindsey Cordero and Armando Croda. It revolves around the US Army soldier Vanessa Guillen who always dreamt of joining the military.  But once she was stationed at Fort Hood, everything shattered. In 2020, after telling her mother she was sexually harassed on base, a fellow soldier kills her. This sparked an international movement of assault victims demanding justice and this bracing. It also follows her family’s fight for historic military reform, a journey that takes them to the Oval Office.

Speaking about the project, director Christy in a statement mentioned, "At the core, this is a story about overcoming the greatest odds imaginable in the name of family, love and justice. This is David vs Goliath on steroids. Taking on the US military, one of the largest, most powerful institutions in America is no easy feat. In making the film, it was incredible to witness a family, in the most tragic moment of their lives, put their grief aside, step out into the public arena and fight for the greater good.”
