War takes no prisoners. It involves everyone - even children.Twin brothers, Amed and Aziz, live in the peaceful shade of their family's orange grove.

But when a bomb kills the boys' grandparents, they become pawns in their country's civil war.

Blood demands more blood and, at the command of a local militant group, either Ahmed or Aziz must strap on a belt of explosives and make the ultimate sacrifice.

Years later, the surviving twin works as an actor in wintry Montreal.

A theatre director gives him a role that forces the young man to reconsider his decisions.

Will Ahmed - or is it Aziz? - release himself from the past?
