What is War about?

In an unnamed city under siege, 14-year-old graffiti artist Kat's world is upended when her father is detained by invading forces. Refusing to flee, she stays behind to rescue him, transforming the city's ruins into symbols of defiance. Meanwhile, Adam, a young conscript, grapples with the purpose of the war he's forced to fight. Their intertwined stories reveal the resilience of the human spirit amidst the devastation of conflict.
