The desperate private war of a Vietnam veteran of the US Army. The Film explores the biggest amok run in the history of the USA at that point of time. The story of a mass murder in San Diego on July 18 1984 is told by showing reports of a local TV station. It turns out that the amok was partly caused by traumatic experiences during the Vietnam War.

Overview

Der Film dokumentiert den Live-Bericht des US-amerikanischen Fernsehens über das sogenannte »McDonald's-Massaker« in San Diego am 18. Juli 1984. Im Gegenschnitt wird Dokumentationsmaterial aus dem Vietnamkrieg gesetzt, um eine Parallele zur Ursache des Amoklaufs herzustellen. Die Bluttat eines einzelnen erweist sich als geistig-moralisches Resultat des Krieges, durch den der ehemalige Soldat zu dem wurde, was er jetzt ist.
