Synopsis
"For those who fight, the war never ends.
WWI veteran Jack lives a solitary, isolated existence, struggling to
come to terms with life after the war and haunted by memories of the
horror and bloodshed of the trenches. His only company is the ghost
of a long-dead friend until his insular existence is shattered by
the unexpected arrival of Masaru, an escaped and desperate Japanese
POW.
Jack’s disturbing past is flung into the here-and-now as the
shocking events of this new war are thrust into his world,
triggering flashbacks to the pain and destruction of the
blood-soaked fields of Flanders. But together the two men, from
different cultures and continents, discover common ground and form
an uneasy yet heartfelt bond, sealed by fear, hope and the need to
survive in a world fraught with peril.
BROKEN SUN is a shocking, brutal and tragic insight into the
terrible hardships of war and the strength, bravery and honour of
those who fight it and live to bear its consequences.
