A war widow searches for the true reason behind her husband’s death, and why she’s been unable to collect survivor benefits. It turns out he has been classified a traitor and a deserter, and the exact cause of his death listed as ‘unknown’. She sets out on a quest to find the people he served with, to determine the real story behind the government smokescreen.

There is a little queue, sometimes it takes me up to 2 days to reupload since I’m also working on new films to add on the site but everything will be reuploaded eventually.
Thank you!
Very good film,….reminds me of Kon Ichikawa’s “FIRES ON THE PLAIN”,
