A century apart, two wars.
Two silences.
One woman determined to break both. When Australian journalist Evie Hart arrives in Ypres, she carries more than a camera. She carries the failure of her Gaza documentary, buried by networks who deemed it too political. Haunted by what she witnessed and by the voices the world refused to hear, Evie turns to the past in search of clarity. What she finds is a set of forgotten WWI letters written by Private William Hart, a soldier she believes to be her great-grandfather. His words, raw, tender, and unflinchingly humane, reveal not only the brutality of the First World War, but a brotherhood shattered by silence. But William never returned home. And the man who did never spoke of him. As Evie uncovers the truth of William, Elias, and Jenkins, three men bound by war and erased by history, she begins to understand the parallels to Gaza. the suppression of truth,

the rewriting of memory,
the weaponisation of silence. When a young man from Rafah reaches out with harrowing footage and a plea to help his people be seen, Evie is thrust into a fight far bigger than a film. From the mud of Passchendaele to the ruins of Gaza, their stories converge across time in a powerful reckoning with complicity, courage, and the cost of bearing witness.
