Hugo Weaving plays a war photojournalist suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder in the first international trailer for the Australian drama "Hearts and Bones."

The "Matrix" and "Lords of Rings" actor stars as a veteran war photographer who, after returning home from covering the Sudanese civil war, finds himself having a really difficult time readjusting back into civilian life. He soon meets and befriends a South Sudanese refugee whose entire family was wiped out during the brutal conflict. They learn that they share a common and painful past.

Co-starring Andrew Luri, Hayley McElhinney, and Bolude Watson, the film is directed and co-written by acclaimed London-born filmmaker Ben Lawrence, who previously made the Australian documentary "Ghosthunter."

"Hearts and Bones" will be released in 2020.
