French and British soldiers, a Chinese worker, a French woman - all are represented in the excerpts , punctuated by closing music by a Togolese singer.

"As soon as I realize how happy I am, I think of my brother and sister, both victims of the war, and my eyes mist over," wrote a French soldier, Alfred Roumiguieres.
