'What would you do if your neighbour suddenly became your enemy? When war turns brother against brother and friend against friend, Petar Popovi must make a choice: join the fighting or turn his back on those he loves. Forced into a war he does not understand, Petar quickly learns he is a man who cannot kill - not even when his own family is lost. Instead, he escapes, rescuing two young children from certain death along the way. To ensure their survival, Petar must reach the Salvation Road, an old smuggler's route that is the only way out of the conflict-ravaged country. But the journey is perilous and long, their enemies are many and their allies are few. In this profoundly moving story of courage, faith and love, this unlikely trio of survivors set out to prove that the human spirit is stronger than the steel of war.'
