Colonel James Braddock, a former Vietnam War prisoner of war, is haunted by memories of his time in captivity. After being released and returning to the United States, he struggles to assimilate back into civilian life.

Accompanied by an old Army buddy and armed with intelligence gathered during the diplomatic mission, he navigates the dense jungles of Vietnam. Braddock faces numerous obstacles and confrontations, including battles with hostile forces and treacherous terrain. His mission is not only a physical journey through the wilderness but also an emotional quest for redemption.
