Overview
A war widow determined to clear the name of her disgraced husband, who was court-martialed for desertion and executed. Official records have been destroyed, and the ministry that distributes benefits continues to deny her a pension. Twenty-six years after the war, she seeks out four survivors of her husband’s garrison. Each tells a dramatically different story about her husband’s conduct, but she is determined to learn the truth.
