After their airplane crashes behind enemy lines, four soldiers must survive and try to find a way back to their battalion. However, when they come across a local peasant girl the horrors of war quickly become apparent.
Forget the polished heroism of typical combat films for this jagged, surrealist look at the psychological fracturing of soldiers lost behind enemy lines. The nightmare shifts from mere survival to a haunting confrontation with human cruelty through the eyes of a local girl.
