La guerra de Billy Lynn

En la mitja part més mediàtica de la televisió mundial, a la Super Bowl del Dia d'Acció de Gràcies, el soldat Billy Lynn i set companys de l'escamot Bravo tenen el seu segon moment de glòria. El primer va ser a la vall d'Al-Ansakar, a l'Irak, on el seu heroisme en un enfrontament amb forces enemigues els va fer mereixedors de diverses medalles al valor. La Casa Blanca, conscient que les guerres es guanyen, sobretot, amb diners, els ha reclamat per fer la Gira de la Victòria i recaptar fons. El Billy passa sense descompressió de la sang, els trets i la mort, al luxe i la barra lliure d'alcohol. D'un camp de batalla a un altre. En el primer podia morir, però en coneixia les regles.
