What is The Keeper about?

“Heavily impacted by his fellow veteran’s suicides, George Eshleman (Angus Benfield), an Army veteran, decides to help raise awareness of military member suicides by hiking the full Appalachian Trail from Maine to Georgia while carrying 363 name tapes from the uniforms of military members who committed suicide,” the official synopsis reads. “He is given the trail name ‘The Keeper’ (of the names) by a special group of veterans he meets along the way, and finds support and comfort from fellow hikers, civilians, and other military veterans alike, in the ‘Hiker Universe.’ Despite their support, his depression threatens to overtake his judgment as the days pass. With his darkness only a few paces from his mind as he travels the trail, George struggles to prove his mettle, conquer his depression, and focus on the mission.”

Along with Benfield (The Great Turkey Town Miracle), The Keeper stars Haley Babula (A Journey Through the Pines), Michael Maclane (Teardrop), Nicolas Asad (Wu-Tang: An American Saga), Andrew Ferguson (Sugar, Silence and Everday Violence), Kameron Whitaker (Momma Bird, Out with The Old, Altum), and Lance Bonza (The Doubles).

The Keeper is directed by Benfield and Kendall Bryant Jr., while the screenplay, based on Eshleman’s story, was written by Todd Tavolazzi.

The Keeper releases in select United States theaters this Memorial Day weekend, starting on May 24, 2024.
