Three Italian soldiers, who have decided to enroll voluntarily for different reasons and leave for Kosovo, find themselves in their daily duties to face the grief and sorrow of a fratricidal war which they can’t really understand from their ‘western’ perspective.
In a war non-war, in Peace-Keeping mission, they have to face extreme experiences and take decisions that radically transform their way of living and their decision-making.
Due to an unforeseen event, in the time-lapse of a day and a night, the three soldiers will find themselves completely involved and forced to fight for their survival, in the attempt to save a young woman escaping, of whom they know nothing.
