David Finker's book about the repercussions of war that we all would like to ignore and forget, basically inspires this film that hits you in the face with the trauma (PTSD) three returning combat veterans (from the minefields of Iraq) have to face while adjusting to living a normal life when they have lost all connect with the 'real' world as we so-called normal folks know it. Adam Schumann (Miles Teller), always willing to shoulder other peoples' burdens, Tausolo Aieti (Beulah Koale), an American Samoan who credits the military with saving his life, and Will Waller (Joe Cole), who returns home to find that his fiancee has left him and taken their daughter with her, are the three central to this telling. The topic is not new to cinema though.
