Plots(1)
Memorial Day, 1993. When 13-year-old Kyle Vogel discovers the World War II footlocker belonging to his grandfather, Bud, everyone tells Kyle to put it back. Although Bud has never talked about his time in World War II he finds himself striking a deal with his grandson: Kyle can pick any three souvenirs, and Bud will tell him the stories behind each one. Memorial Day not only takes us on a journey into Bud's complicated wartime past, but also into Kyle's wartime future. The film shows the similarities between two generations of one family as the two men share parallel experiences in combat, Bud in war torn Europe and Kyle in modern day Iraq.
