Innocent civilians search for love, hope and meaning as they rebuild their lives in the aftermath of a devastating war; each protecting something which represents a strand of life in a place where there is no sign of existence.
A solar eclipse has brought people to the edge of madness. The Earth witnesses extreme brutality manifested by the need to make terrible sacrifices to an unknown evil. How could this have happened? Is this the wrath of God? Such is the view of a group of extremists who are quick to deal with those responsible. But who decides who is guilty and who is not?

Even the goriest images conceal at least a sliver of hope; they serve as a necessary ritual if we are to accept the demons that inhabit us all.
