A true story of two brothers and the war that changed everything.
Francis and Pieter are brothers. As shadow of one war lingers, and the rumbles of another approach, the brothers argue. Francis is a fierce pacifist, while Pieter signs up to fight. What happens next will change the course of Francisās life forever . . . and throw him into the mouth of the wolf
