Description
War is an abstract concept until the moment your neighbours start amassing weapons and sandbagging their buildings and checkpoints line the streets. Tensions are high, divides are deep and anxieties spread far across. Clashes are no longer isolated incidents. Strategies come up on how to best defend your territory against the enemy - who was the enemy again? The fear of the other sucks you further in. How do you react to a war slowly tightening its noose, strangling our lives? What were our parents thinking? What made them decide between fleeing to safety or joining the fight? Many found themselves at the frontline of a choice and of a conflict about what might or might not be right, all the while not quite sure why their differences gave birth to a war, and knowing even less about exactly what it would take to stop the fight.
