This film shows us the reality of what veterans experience when returning home. No hollywood glam, no big budget special effects. Just the real thing. Beyond being a movie about a veteran, it is equally a story about a father and son relationship. Beautiful script, beautiful character development and beautifully shot. I’ve watched it many times and plan to watch it many more. It moved me on many levels. Not to mention the amazing music. A must see!

This maybe the best example of ‘gorilla’ independent filmmaking I’ve ever seen! The film is set in NYC, fantastic ensemble cast including stand-out performances from Gary Swanson, Max Martini & Jerry Della Salla. This is a MUST WATCH for anyone with family in the military or someone currently servicing overseas, it’s touching and wonderfully poignant considering what’s going on with Veterans today. Give it a watch!

Awesome film exploring the realities of PTSD that affects so many of our heroic service men and women. Fantastic cast and well executed production. Definitely check this one out.
