Script: Robert Fortier
A comment without words on the ancient theme of love and war: the man called to arms for his country; his sweetheart left behind to mourn; sorrow and separation visited upon the innocent. This is how it always has been, but implicit in the film are the protests of the new generation: Must it always be so? Is not love better than war?
