"Shooter," aka Matt Thompson aka Gruwald, is a photographer in 1967 Saigon, Vietnam. Working out of a news agency for a major magazine, Thompson gets involved in the lives of the soldiers he meets and "shoots." There's Ngoc, the Vietnamese photo lab tech; Klause, a German photographer swiping Buddhas; Rene, a French
photographer who carries an AK-47; Stork, Matt's superstitious roommate who is also a photographer; Rizzo, the irascible editor;
Lan, an American-educated Vietnamese reporter; and Tracey,
an embassy worker who is Matt's former flame.

Adrian plays an Aussie cameraman who dislikes the reporter he
works for. After continuously trying to put him and his sound
person in harm's way, they decide the only thing to do is kill the reporter before he gets them killed. He buys a AK-47 and ends up accidentally shooting up their drinking hole, while the reporter lives.
