Grown Men Don't Cry chronicles the lives of two young men from adolescence through adulthood searching for purpose in an unforgiving world. From outlandish childhood pranks to agonizing mental anguish, this story depicts the constant highs and lows inflicted by mental illness. Ben Chase and Jimmy Keller are the new kids in the small town of Bristol, New Hampshire. Sharing a love of sports and a bit of a wild side, Ben and Jimmy quickly gravitate toward each other and become best friends. Their bond is strengthened as they realize they both come from dysfunctional families. Growing up, Ben has viewed his Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) as nothing more than a nuisance. Then all hell breaks loose the day that he becomes a father and realizes there is a lot in the world that he can't control. Meanwhile, Jimmy is battling his own demons. Since his return from his third tour of duty in Iraq, he's suffered from a severe case of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Declaring he's had enough, Jimmy makes the conscious choice to end his life. While out enjoying what is supposed to be his last meal, Jimmy overhears a conversation about a former baseball standout that has just months to live, and discovers it's his old friend. Jimmy puts his suicide mission on hold to reconnect with Ben. In their weakest moments, it's now shared pain which helps rekindle their unbreakable bond. Grown Men Don't Cry is the story of sacrifice, friendship, mortality and the will to persevere.
