In a surprise attack, American forces stationed in Baghdad are ambushed in a local neighborhood.

The Long Road Home recounts the eight-hour battle in Sadr City on April 4, 2004, following the ambush of a newly-arrived American platoon. The series is told in real-time through the perspectives of untested soldiers in their first combat experience, their families anxiously waiting for news back home, and ordinary Iraqis caught in the midst of war.
