It is about the post war plight of the severely wounded.
The two-hour documentary follows the plights of American soldiers who have returned physically or psychologically wounded. It addresses the psychological issues that nearly 100% of combat soldiers suffer with, namely Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. It explains how soldiers are treated after they return home and also addresses why the military and the VA are not doing enough to combat their problems. But Who Will Stand goes a step further by uncovering solutions through organizations that help soldiers at no cost and without the bureaucracy they experience with the Military and the VA.
The filmmakers promised the soldiers that they would not interview politicians, actors, media people or anyone with an opinion on what they had experienced and were suffering with. They would only interview soldiers, their families and the doctors who treat them. It is an eye opening look at life after Military service.
