This documentary follows two friends as they walk from Wisconsin to California to bring attention to issues that veterans of the Afghan and Iraq wars face, and to heal themselves. Tom Voss and Anthony Anderson both struggle with depression and anxiety, difficulty connecting to their families, and what they refer to as moral injuries or “wounds to the soul”—guilt or shame for acts they witnessed or were involved in during combat. During their physical and psychological odyssey, they talk with vets and well-wishers and regain “some level of faith in people,” but in the end, a spiritual transformation has the most healing power. Almost Sunrise “deepen[s] the picture of what troubles many veterans” (Neil Genzlinger, New York Times).
