Blessed by Fire
A war veteran, haunted by the horrors of war and the experiences he shared with fellow soldiers drafted to the battlefront as an 18-year-old conscript, is forced to confront the memories of his past after a former comrade attempts suicide. 20 years after the war, he finally attempts to reconnect with his past to begin to heal his old wounds.
