On March 5, 2006, the Hollywood movie "Home of the Brave" started shooting in Morocco. In order to truly show the look of the Iraqi battlefield, the crew deliberately chose Morocco, a North African country with an outdoor environment that is very similar to the Iraqi neighborhoods, as the shooting location. A remote desert city between Agadir and Marrakech in southern Morocco was set up as an Iraqi battlefield by a camera crew. This desert city is home to approximately 44,000 people, mainly Berbers and Arabs. The small city is also the starting point of the Sahara Desert, and the filming of the film started from the outskirts of this city.
The budget of "Home of the Brave" is only 12 million U.S. dollars, and military consultant Patrick Odresco ensured the authenticity of the film's content. Some of the large-scale equipment used in the war scenes in the movie was built by the local Moroccan government. At the same time, they also provided fuel trucks, weapon delivery trucks and military trailers for the crew to shoot, and even mobilized for the climax of the war. Come armored vehicles and helicopters. As for what the crew is responsible for preparing, they are medium-sized equipment such as gears, tents, camouflage nets, ammunition boxes, and barbed wire. The few real weapons in the hands of the soldiers were bought from hand-crafted workshops in Paris, France, and then special effects artists created the effects of grenades, mortars, and gunpowder during shooting.
