By Chris Adshead.

Falklands War veteran Tommy returns to the islands seeking closure. While tending the grave of an enemy soldier, his child asks about the war. Unable to explain, Tommy weaves a fantastical tale in which a Tin-Pot Foreign General and an Old Iron Woman battle for possession of a distant island. Yet behind their cartoon rivalry lies a brutal truth: the soldiers who fight their wars are all too real, ultimately paying the devastating price of their leaders’ ambitions. As memory and imagination collide, can Tommy finally reconcile his feelings about the conflict and his place within it?

Age suitability: 12+.
