Synopsis

Jerry Collins was emotionally scarred by "the good war" and failed to live up to the standards set for the men of his era. He found unlikely solace: Collins began confiding in his daughter about the war before she turned five. Drawing on her recollections and a suitcase of her father's old letters and photographs, Julia Collins pieces together his experience during the war, his return home, and his subsequent descent — offering a new perspective on the men of "the greatest generation." Photographs are included in this candid recollection.
