This film is about a man whose works were strictly forbidden in Soviet Russia and even his name was not to be spoken. Ivan Solonevich is a Russian philosopher, political activist and publicist. In addition to this he was an outstanding athlete and one of the founders of Russian Sambo (self defense without weapons). In light of the current international situation following Solonevich, our film takes on new significance. The prophecies of this amazing Russian thinker sound even more relevant now and some historical parallels can be made which help us to understand more clearly some of the events taking place in the world today.

The epic journey of two friends, ex-soldiers, who battle the moral injuries of war, and the temptation to escape through suicide, as they walk across America.

Told by gauchos from Brazil, Argentina and Uruguai, the legend says that Anahy de las Missiones wandered around the Plata Basin during the time of Cisplatina War (1825-1828), stealing the dead.

While the commander of the British Army in Arabia, Major J. W. Courtney, is out in the desert chasing marauding tribesmen, his wife carries on an affair with Captain Randall. Courtney returns to the outpost ahead of time and the wife takes refuge in the quarters of Lieutenant W.B. Lawrence. Lawrence, maintaining the silence (and stiff upper lip) that his code of honor dictates is drummed out of the service. He joins the forces of El Rahman and becomes a sheik of the desert. Warfare, instigated by Randall, breaks out between the troops and the tribesmen and ends when the mortally wounded Randall confesses to his dastardly deeds, the least of which included making love to his commander's wife.

Danger and courage; accomplishment and loss; romance and heartbreak; life and death. World War Two veterans tell their life stories; young construction workers build a monument to honour fallen soldiers; and modern peacekeepers talk about their upcoming mission to Afghanistan.
