plot synopsis:
The film is about a long lasting civil war in Great Britain and its ancillary countries in the near future. The war zone is on a barren island where farmers toil in a manner recalling the days of the Industrial Revolution. Young single women will be recruited by governance into special units to advise the troops. They are sent off to distant outposts, where sniper fire and explosions indicate the presence of the unseen enemy.
