    @nickienicks @castingsinmyblood @otsutsuki @mirandaandmariah @samanthaharmon @625rip @xxx_fallengalaxyxxx @thepinkmenace and @robertcooper Well, hey there guys! So, you're probably wondering, "But Wolf, you already showed us Savior! Why are you taking us back?" Well, because the story needs more emotion in what it's trying to tell you, and the plotline needed to be longer. I also remade the film, so now it's brand new. Now, it's been given and R-rating, and this time, it's not Lionsgate distributing it, and it's instead fully distributed by Angel Studios. I don't need to tell you why, heh. So, grab tissues for this version and keep them nearby. Enjoy!

    Before quitting, Sam promises the veteran she helped to find and reunite his estranged wife and children, displaced by family conflicts. On their first mission, they recruit Bryan Frederickson, a retired veteran and surgeon, who shares their passion. Police Chief Inspector Zachary Overton covertly authorizes their work. Despite successes, some veterans still take their own lives, forcing Sam to hold deeply personal burials honoring their sacrifice.
