Lithuania, 1948. The war is over, leaving the country in ruins. 19-year-old Untė is a member of the Partisan movement resisting the Soviet occupation, an unequal fight that will determine the country’s future. At an age where he should be discovering life, Untė discovers violence and treachery that blur the lines between the burning passion of his youth and the cause for which he is fighting. He will invest himself wholeheartedly, even if it means losing his innocence…
