About who are the veterans
This feature film documentary aims to portrait veterans from the Falklands War from both sides: British and Argentinian. To tell their stories, to get to know them today: who are they, what do they do?
A unique opportunity to ask the veterans pretty much anything: about their life experience, their survival experience. To get insight from survivors who, despite the outcome of the conflict, despite the current and past political environments in both countries, and despite their own individual challenges, have managed to thrive and to help each other, to be friends with their "enemy".
