James Hunter, an aging Vietnam veteran in his 70s, humdrum existence, is haunted by memory decades after the war. Hunter's dream opens a world of vivid memory - Captain Hunter in Viet Nam in 1972, who is badly wounded and found by a Viet Cong medic, Lan. The act of kindness from Lan saves Hunter, but it causes a great price. Hunter lives but drowns himself in grief and pain. The story shifts when his battle buddy's ghost visits him.
