Anthony Fischer (Derek Luke) is a child who lost his parents since childhood. He was first sent to an orphanage and later adopted by a couple. In the home of his adoptive parents, Fischer spent a miserable childhood. Not only was he lynched by his adoptive parents, he was also tortured by his "elder sister" who was not related by blood. Unfortunately, Fischer developed a tyrannical character and hatred of women.
When he grew up, he came to serve in the Navy because of his personality problems often causing trouble. As a result, he was ordered to receive psychological treatment from the military psychologist Jerome (Denzel Washington).
The treatment process is difficult. In the beginning, Jerome couldn't even understand Fischer's true thoughts. It wasn't until later that through slow contact and using the power of emotions to influence him, the two gradually began to communicate in real spirit. The role of the black girl Cheryl (Joy Bryant) and Mrs. Jerome (Sally Richardson) in Fischer's transformation cannot be underestimated. It was they who warmed Fischer's heart, let him get rid of the shadow of his childhood and found the beacon of life again.
