There are few women like Lynsey Addario. A decorated photographer who, for over two decades, has documented the horror and complexity of the theatre of war, she is also a wife and mother of two young children. With incredible access to Lynsey’s personal life in London and on the treacherous fields of combat, Love+War follow the internal struggles of a woman living two very different lives.
