Corporal Lincoln Hunt, returns home after his final tour in Iraq, only to realise that for some… the war is never really over. Linc struggles with his combat PTSD, as he tries to recalibrate back into his civilian life, and although he is physically back home with his wife Elisha and 9 year old daughter Lila… He isn’t ‘really’ home. The horrific flashbacks and silent screams in his head finally become to much to bare, and after an emotional confrontation, Linc snaps and attacks Elisha and Lila. Scared out of their minds they leave and seek solace with Jack, Elisha’s father; who is also an ex Vietnam Vet. Jack loves Linc like his own son, but more-so he understands him in a way that only another soldier could. Linc is tired of living as an empty vessell of his former self, and want’s to ‘LIVE’ not just ‘EXIST’, and after an emotional exchange of words, Linc breaks down and realises that he can’t get passed the PTSD on his own; and better yet he doesn’t have to, he accepts responsibility for his actions at war (good or bad, whatever they may be), and finally opens himself up to receiving help and treatment. |
