“I just want to wake up in the morning & feel something.” Allen Media Group has unveiled an official trailer for a movie called Sheepdog, a story about US veterans and their mental health struggles. This isn’t the first film to deal with this topic, there’s actually quite a few of them recently (and I will also recommend My Dead Friend Zoe). A decorated combat veteran is court ordered into treatment when an ex-convict shows up on his doorstep and explains he must work to put himself back together again. Shot on location in Western Massachusetts, Sheepdog is the first film that truly explores the physical & psychological repercussions of trauma, with a focus on Post Traumatic Growth (PTG). It is an uplifting original story, inspired by countless first-hand testimonials about recovery, redemption, and the journey of healing; themes that now mirror our post-pandemic zeitgeist. This stars Steven Grayhm, Vondie Curtis Hall, Virginia Madsen, Dominic Fumusa, Lilli Cooper, and Matt Dallas. Alas this is not about a sheepdog, only about veterans & trauma.
Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for Steven Grayhm’s film Sheepdog, direct from YouTube:
Decorated U.S. Army combat veteran Calvin Cole (Steven Grayhm), is court ordered into treatment and into the care of a VA trauma therapist in-training (Virginia Madsen), who works the night shift at a local diner to pay for college. Things become even more complicated when Calvin’s father-in-law and retired Vietnam Veteran (Vondie Curtis Hall), shows up on his doorstep, having just been released from prison. As Calvin’s plan to run away from his life becomes impossible, he learns with support from his community, tough love, and compassion that he must put himself back together again for his family – and for himself. Sheepdog is written and directed by Canadian-American filmmaker Steven Grayhm, director of the film The Secret of Sinchanee previously and a few other short films. Produced by Lynn K. D’Angona, Matt Dallas, Steven Grayhm, P. Colin Kane, Jose Martinez Jr. Allen Media Group will debut Grayhm’s Sheepdog film in select US theaters starting in December 2025 later this year.
