Shelter

Connie Granger has escaped the devastation of her bombed out city home. She has found work in the Women's Timber Corps and for her this remote community must now serve a secret purpose. Seppe an Italian prisoner of war is haunted by his memories. But in the forest camp he finds a strange kind of freedom. In each other they find the means to imagine their own lives anew and to face that which each fears the most. But outside their haven the world is ravaged by war and old certainties are crumbling. Both Connie and Seppe must make a life-defining choice which threatens their fragile existence. How will they make sense of this new world and find their place within it?
