Hank Hughes is the first Post-9/11 veteran filmmaker to be nominated for an Oscar.

Hughes sat down with WATM's Blake Stilwell and discussed his beginnings as a filmmaker and being mentored by George Lucas.

'Day One' is inspired by a Hughes' experiences in Afghanistan. The film depicts a female translator's first day accompanying a U.S. Army unit on patrol. As she quickly discovers, her job involves dealing with the brutal complexities of gender and religious barriers with lives hanging in the balance.
