Synopsis: (Documentary) RUDY + NEAL GO FISHING puts a face to Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD.) The film is about a hairdresser and a soldier going fishing. The soldier is a veteran struggling with PTSD now that he is back on the home-front and his recreational therapist at the VA prescribed fishing as a form of therapy.

Over the course of the day, the two guys bond and form a lasting friendship.
