This short film is part of the Raoul Servais Shorts.
November 1914, the front in Flanders. In a partially destroyed aid station, the wounded French soldier François is the only one left. He lies on a field bed and has an open wound in the side. Suddenly, he sees the silhouette of a figure with a pointed helmet on its head looming. The inexperienced, young German, Friedrich, has been sent ahead because of his huge stature Friedrich has been sent in front to frighten the enemy. Slowly he steps toward the wounded man. Friedrich holds the only weapon he owns, a grenade, ready for use. Friedrich draws a revolver... Will the two young enemies kill each other or will the confrontation take a different turn?
During this public performance, music collective Boshaard will also give a preview of their theatre tour, during which they will provide live music for a number of Servais' short films.
