Haunted by decades of trauma, a decorated U.S. veteran returns to Vietnam with a friend who fled the war as a child. As they move through a modernized country they scarcely recognize, the two men retrace the past, confronting former enemies and long-buried memories. Their journey leads them to one of the war's bloodiest battle sites of 1968, where they come face to face with the Vietnamese soldiers they once fought, breaking years of silence in a search for healing, reconciliation, and peace. Opening night at the GI Film Festival features a hosted reception with filmmakers, post-screening discussion, awards announcements and dessert reception.
