A tender, intimate wartime romance between two young men from opposing sides, built on quiet moments of care and unexpected connection amid historical tragedy.

During the final days of World War II, a simple French peasant rescues a wounded German soldier and nurses him back to health. As their playful camaraderie grows, two young men who should be enemies begin to bond in ways neither thought possible.
