• Summary:

  Caught in the turmoil of a turbulent time in history, two men face difficult choices between war, peace, and freedom.

  November 1943, a battlefield near Kiev: a Russian officer finds himself alone in a shelter in front of a German officer. Faced with the absurdity of their situation, the two men decide to share a peaceful moment. But the war is not over, and each has his own path to take. 

  The story is remarkably illustrated by Marc Botta using archive materials. Alex Nikolavitch is of Balkan descent, a region of Europe that has suffered many armed conflicts. Here, he shares his take on the absurdity of war.
