A journalist compiling stories for his new book on geopolitical conflicts and genocides is thrown in and out of the experiences of the various people that he writes about. He is taken to moments and transported to personal narratives of war victims, and within them he uncovers the true cruelty of war and harrowing dehumanizing experience of facing death with no escape. Trying hard to emotionally detach from the stories and facing the sensorship he finds himself taken to places he did not expect.
