A veteran named David returns from deployment in Afghanistan with a terrible injury, only to have his wife demand a divorce. Sarah, David’s wife, sits by his bedside in the hospital, her demeanor cold and resolved.
She tells David she can’t be his wife anymore and leaves him alone. A few days later, Sarah returns to take his things and informs him that he will be discharged from the hospital and sent to live with his mother across the country. David is devastated, as he and Sarah had once shared dreams of a future together. The pain of the divorce is both physical and emotional for David, who lost his leg in the war and now feels like he has lost his wife as well. The following day, David meets another wounded soldier, Jake, who has also recently been discharged from the military. Despite the pain and uncertainty of his future, David finds solace in the connection he forms with Jake.
David, a wounded veteran, is accepted into a transitional housing facility for wounded veterans. The facility, run by Christina, a compassionate director who had served as a nurse in Iraq, becomes David’s sanctuary as he undergoes grueling physical therapy. David finds solace in the camaraderie and support of his fellow residents. Meanwhile, on the other side of the country, Sarah, David’s ex-wife, is living a carefree life with a new boyfriend, enjoying shopping and cocktails. However, guilt gnaws at her, and she feels an emptiness that nothing seems to fill. Unbeknownst to her, David receives a substantial life insurance policy from his grandfather’s law firm, making her past actions even more significant.
David receives an unexpected inheritance from his late grandfather, which he sees as an opportunity to rebuild his life and make a difference for other veterans. The sum is more than he imagined and comes with a sense of responsibility, as it represents his grandfather’s unwavering belief in service and sacrifice. David envisions transforming the veteran facility into a haven for wounded soldiers, providing them with the support and resources they need to heal and rebuild their lives. However, his ex-wife, Sarah, learns about the inheritance and becomes consumed by resentment and greed. She plans to win David back and take the money for herself, using manipulation and deceit to achieve her goal.
Sarah, the wife, expresses her regret for leaving her husband David, a disabled military veteran, and attempts to apologize. However, David remains unresponsive as he has seen through her lies. Sarah, underestimating his resilience, reveals her true intentions: she believes the inheritance is rightfully hers. David refuses, stating it is his grandfather’s legacy, which he intends to use to help fellow soldiers. Enraged, Sarah leaves in a fit of fury and humiliation. David, relieved of the burden of her lies, focuses on the veteran facility, bringing in new equipment, hiring therapists, and finding joy in mentoring new arrivals. Eventually, David and Christina, a staff member, develop a bond, and the facility becomes a beacon of hope for wounded soldiers.
