The Battle of Pussy Willow Creek (2013)

Ken Burns meets Spinal Tap in a subversive tour de force relaying the outrageous life stories of four forgotten Civil War heroes an opiumaddicted gay Colonel an aging Chinese launderer a nerdy escaped slave and a onearmed teenage prostitute Both wickedly satirical and deeply affectionate The Battle of Pussy Willow Creek tells the 100 true story of how these oddball outsiders saved the Union from a nefarious foreign plot how the forces of bigotry expunged their stunning victory from the history books and most importantly how meeting ones ex on the field of battle can be just the thing to respark a detoured romance
