A film by Robert Morin
Afghanistan, 2006. Caught in a bewildering war, four young Canadian soldiers, Steve, Antoine, Maxime and Kevin, take leave. Unbeknownst to their superiors, they set themselves up in an oasis overlooked by war, and there they watch their friendship blossom and evolve. During their five days off, they find the complicity and peace of a united family, which they seek to protect at all cost by deserting. The war thwarts their plan and isolates them from each other. But Antoine ends up writing the story of peace they've lived through between two battles.
