Tim Hetherington lost his life yesterday while covering the battle in Libya. He was the director of the war documentary "Restrepo". Hetherington was embedded with the Army unit in Afghanistan when Army Staff Sgt. Salvatore Giunta put his life on the line to save his comrades. Giunta later became the first living recipient of the Medal of Honor since Vietnam.

"Tim was on the frontline with the soldiers when they came under attack in a Taliban ambush during "Operation Rock Avalanche". The attack resulted in the death of three soldiers.

The judges described The Other War as "extraordinary". One said: "I haven’t seen US soldiers portrayed so clearly as vulnerable human beings. The piece completely changes your view of them."
