Debuting in 2022 and previously screened solely for National Law Enforcement Museum visitors in Washington, D.C., the film features a diverse group of officers serving different roles from around the United States, demonstrating what drives someone to become a police officer, what motivates them in their work, the obstacles they face, and how their families and loved ones feel about and are affected by what they do and the risks they take. The film demonstrates the human side of police officers, exploring the soul and purpose of law enforcement officers and their families — choosing to put themselves at risk to make their communities safer and better places for all.

“Service and Sacrifice puts into perspective every aspect of law enforcement, underscoring the sacrifices these individuals make daily, while also exhibiting the human side of the job, being a good steward for the people and communities they serve and inspiring others to see the good that they do in the world,” NLEOMF CEO Bill Alexander said. “We are honored to showcase our film to a wider audience through the different digital platforms being offered to provide the viewer a broader understanding of everything that a police officer manages daily.”
