Many people are currently rethinking their views on military buildup and conscription. Can peace be achieved without weapons? Or is the use of force a last option, or even necessary right now? In our film, we follow four people who have arrived at very different answers to these questions—and show how deeply personal histories, doubts, and experiences shape attitudes toward war and peace.
