In a small town during wartime, two women find themselves caught in a conflict that changes their lives forever. One of them is Mary, a single mother who struggles to keep her son safe while her husband is at the front, fervently wishing for his return. On the other hand, Ellen is an idealistic young woman who has joined a local group of volunteers, determined to support the war effort at all costs, even if that means confronting her own beliefs.
As tensions rise and uncertainties about the future loom over the town, both women find themselves on opposite paths. Mary, who only wants to protect her son, begins to question the war and its true consequences, even as her social circle pressures her to support the cause. In contrast, Ellen becomes caught up in the patriotic fervor and propaganda until a series of events force her to reconsider her ideals.
The lives of Mary and Ellen intersect when they face a personal crisis and a moral dilemma that redefine what it means to be a mother in times of war. With a script that explores intense emotions and heart-wrenching decisions, this story reveals the powerful role of women in a male-dominated world, challenging norms and finding courage in love and loyalty. In the end, both will discover that sometimes the greatest sacrifices arise from the bravest hearts.
