Duck Hunting

In a quiet rural town, a returning veteran wrestles with memories that won’t let him rest. As autumn winds sweep through the fields, a chance encounter with a young neighbor opens a doorway to forgiveness, danger, and the fragile ties that bind a community. Through stripped-down moments and observant detail, the story unfolds like a slow, intimate patrol—watchful, wary, and unexpectedly hopeful. Duck hunting becomes a quiet metaphor for pursuit, survival, and the uneasy peace that follows when truth surfaces.
