Synopsis by Eleanor Mannikka
When a man is released from a mental hospital he encounters a severe emotional blow that threatens his recovery -- his wife has left him, and she has taken their son with her. From this unstable situation the man leaves to fulfill his annual one-month's military service, and while back in the army, he regains some self-esteem as the camaraderie and mutual support of his buddies helps him to stabilize -- but his personal struggle with his own demons is far from over.
