A soldier ( Tim Robbins ) who had returned home from the Vietnam War found himself suffering from the sequelae of a mental problem and often had the illusion of being hunted down. Whenever there was a critical moment of life and death, he would come back alive in another time and space, thinking about the past. The nightmare encounter that happened, but then he was awakened in the real world again, so he seemed to be living in two worlds, it is difficult to determine which is true and false? Maybe both are fake? You never wake up?

Jacob Singer: Jezzie? Get me out of here!
Evil Doctor: Where do you want to go?
Jacob Singer: Home.
Evil Doctor: Home? This is your home. You're dead.
Jacob Singer: Dead? No. I just hurt my back, I'm not dead.
Evil Doctor: What are you, then?
Jacob Singer: [Jacob quietly grins] I'M ALIVE!
Evil Doctor: Then what are you doing here?
Jacob Singer: I don't know.
Jacob Singer: [crying] This isn't happening.
Evil Doctor: What is happening?
Jacob Singer: Get me out of here.
Evil Doctor: There is no out of here. You've been killed, don't you remember?
Jacob Singer: [an eyeless doctor approaches Jacob and hold its long needle and positions the needle and shoves it into Jacob's head and blood comes out] AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!
