Lynsey, a U.S. soldier, experiences a traumatic brain injury after an ODD explosion during her your in Afghanistan which forces her to return home in New Orleans. She struggles to return to her daily life with her mother as she waits for her wish to return for redeployment. Her doctor is reluctant to sign her waiver to return as he feels that trauma is a strong link to her depression. As she improves with rehabilitation, she becomes unlikely friends with James, an auto mechanic, who also has physical and mental trauma after a car accident in which his nephew was killed on the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway.
