A haunting supernatural thriller that uses literal ghosts to excavate the psychological and moral wounds five war veterans carry home from WWII.

Five military veterans, best friends since childhood, gather together in a Brooklyn brownstone several months after the end of World War II, and the metaphoric ghosts of their past become all-too-literal.
