Sergeant Charles Monroe King (Michael B. Jordan) is deployed to Iraq. He leaves behind the love of his life Dana (Chanté Adams) and their infant son – so to help him cope with the sadness he feels at leaving them behind, he begins writing a journal of love and advice in the hope that he’ll be able to pass on his words to his child someday (whether he survives his deployment or not). Dana, a New York Times editor, revisits the story of her unlikely, life-altering relationship with King, and his enduring devotion to her and their child.
Based on a true story, Denzel Washington’s A Journal For Jordan is a sweeping account of a once-in-a-lifetime love and a powerful reminder of the importance of family.
