'Armed Only With a Camera: Life & Death of Brent Renaud' Doc Trailer

"The way you hold that camera, you're doing it from your heart." HBO Max has revealed the official trailer for a documentary film titled Armed Only With a Camera: Life & Death of Brent Renaud, made by his brother Craig Renaud. This first premiered at the 2025 SXSW Film Festival earlier this year - where it won the Audience Award for Best Documentary. It'll be streaming on HBO Max later this October. Armed Only With a Camera is a powerful tribute to a war photojournalist who risked everything on the front lines. On March 13th, 2022, doc filmmaker Brent Renaud was killed by Russian soldiers – the first American journalist to die while reporting on the war in Ukraine. His younger brother & collaborator, Craig Renaud, recovered Brent's body and his final recordings from Ukraine and brought them back home to Arkansas. As Brent's journey to his final resting place unfolds, the doc film chronicles the years he and his brother spent covering some of the world's most dangerous conflicts as photojournalists. Brent's journey home also serves as a window into what drove him as a journalist, and how he viewed the world through his lens. This film is dedicated to Brent and all journalists who use cameras to fight for peace. They're more important than ever. // Continue Reading ›
