WAR IS OVER! Inspired by the Music of John & Yoko
In a reimagined World War I setting, where a futile conflict continues unabated, two soldiers from opposing forces engage in a spirited game of chess. A brave carrier pigeon transports their chess moves across the battlefield, even as the violence intensifies. Unaware of each other’s identities, the soldiers persist in their game, which parallels the war’s progression towards a decisive conclusion. Regardless of who triumphs in the chess match, the underlying truth remains: war yields no true victors.
