In February 1945, a photographer captured the iconic image of US Marines planting the American flag atop a mountain in Iwo Jima. The identities of these men have been thought known for 70 years, but new evidence shows that one man was never identified. This film can finally reveal a new hero. Using modern science and expert investigations to examine the original photo in ways that we have never seen before, we rewrite the history books.
