Plot – What's the story about?

Plot: Decorated U.S. Army combat veteran Calvin Cole (Steven Grayhm), is court ordered into treatment and into the care of a VA trauma therapist in-training (Academy Award Nominee Virginia Madsen), who works the night shift at a local diner to pay for college. Things become even more complicated when Calvin's father-in-law and retired Vietnam Veteran (Emmy Nominee Vondie Curtis Hall), shows up on his doorstep, having just been released from prison. As Calvin’s plan to run away from his life becomes impossible, he learns through support from his community, tough love, and compassion that he must put himself back together again for his family – and for himself.
