Brothers Craig and Juan honor slain journalist Brent Renaud in Oscar-nominated doc "Armed Only With a Camera."
Craig Renaud and photographer Juan Arredondo are Oscar nominees for the short documentary "Armed Only With a Camera: The Life and Death of Brent Renaud," a tribute to Brent, a journalist killed by Russian forces in Ukraine in 2022.
The film, made from a promise between brothers to continue filming after death, captures Brent’s final moments, his funeral, and the emotional recovery of Arredondo, who survived severe injuries.
Though honored by the nomination, both men describe the experience as bittersweet, marked by grief and survivor’s guilt.
The documentary highlights Brent’s decades of courageous reporting on global conflicts and humanitarian crises, including a powerful moment in Somalia where a dying patient praised his compassion.
Despite the pain, they see the film as a form of healing and a way to uphold Brent’s mission of truthful storytelling.
