A war film about a family, a murder, and a political conspiracy.

An old man, alone and abandoned by his only living relative, haunted by his role in altering the course of American history, prepares to commit suicide. His grandson, a young, traumatized veteran is on the edge, caught between his memory and reality, trying to reach his estranged girlfriend who doesn't know that he's back, or gone awol. In one last desperate attempt he seeks her out, but at this point everything is a trigger.
