The 40,000

The 40,000 Synopsis

'THE 40,000' is a documentary about Canada's covert involvement in the Vietnam War, the over 40,000 Canadians who secretly served there, and the only person to ever make a movie about it. Featuring interviews with cast and crew members of Barry Levy's award winning feature film 'SPOOK', 'THE 40,000' shows not only the connections of these people to Vietnam, but also uncovers the dirty secret of Canada's support of US Military and Industry during the war, and the explosive growth of the Canadian arms industry in the late 60's and 70's.
