In one village in particular there are several people who appear to have the needed strengths and resolve to stay on their chosen homeland. Here there is an ancient deminer, a wise old Vietnamese women, an Israeli field medic, a hardened mercenary and many more all of whom are being watched over by one guardian angel. When a wave of falling bombs begin to approach everyone is wondering if their preparations are sufficient. Even if they can live through this next attack would starting over again even be possible?
