Waffenstillstand<br />
CEASEFIRE<br />
Baghdad. The war is officially over, the situation still disastrous.<br />
The supply of food and medicine to Fallujah has<br />
collapsed. Americans and rebels manage to agree to a 24hour<br />
ceasefire.<br />
Kim, a Dutch worker for an international relief organization,<br />
teams up with the young <strong>German</strong> journalist Oliver,<br />
who hopes for a scoop, to organize an aid transport. Kim<br />
is hell-bent to get blood units and medication into Fallujah,<br />
but the transport has to return within the 24 hours or face<br />
the consequences.<br />
Oliver’s experienced cameraman Ralf is pessimistic about<br />
the plan while Husam, the local driver, has his own hidden<br />
agenda. Joining them is Alain Laroche, one of the last doctors<br />
in the zone.<br />
The five take to the road through a devastated country.<br />
Overcoming severe obstacles, they make it to Fallujah,<br />
where the situation is dire. Desperate, they decide to take<br />
as many wounded back to Baghdad as they can. But will<br />
they make it before the 24 hours are up?<br />
