Summary:
Arian and Ernest are two determined students from a California university who follow the inspiration of their idealistic professor, Dr. Malley, and attempt to do something important with their lives. They make the bold decision to join the battle in Afghanistan. Malley is both moved and distraught. In Afghanistan, Arian and Ernest must fight for survival in the field. In California, the anguished Dr. Malley attempts to reach a privileged but disaffected student who is the very opposite of Arian and Ernest. Meanwhile, in Washington, D.C., Senator Jasper Irving, the charismatic Presidential hopeful, is about to give a bombshell story to a probing TV journalist that may affect the fate of Arian and Ernest.
