This powerful memory drama follows two Plumfield High School seniors who join the Army and are deployed to Iraq. The effects of war on them and their families at home and are poignantly examined, as one friend struggles with returning to a normal life while suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder. The audience is pulled into these young soldiers’ emotional experiences on and off the battle field, poetically moving between past and present, fantasy and reality.
