In the fourth episode of Season 2, The MDC team speak with New Mexico native, Roman Baca about his dance documentary 'Exit 12: Moved by War'. Roman trained as a classical ballet dancer and took a hiatus from dance to enlist in the United States Marine Corps and served in the Iraq War. After returning home, he co-founded Exit12 Dance Company to explore telling veterans' stories choreographically and the healing power of dance.  

Roman details the journey of making the docu-dance; including some of the choreographic and filmic choices, the collaboration between himself and the director Mohammed Gorjestani as well as the importance of safe-guarding the veterans and dancers involved.
