About the film

As a devoted Marine for 25 years, Master Sgt. Jerry Ensminger lived and breathed the “Corps”. When his 9-year-old daughter dies from a rare form of leukemia, Jerry wants to know why. His search for answers leads him to a shocking discovery: a Marine Corps cover-up of one of the worst water contamination incidents in US history. With relentless determination, he spearheads a decades-long battle to make this information public and hold the Marine Corps accountable. “Semper Fi: Always Faithful” is a searing look at the military's betrayal of its soldiers and an emotional story of one man's transformation into the activist he never imagined he'd become.
