Synopsis:
Paula Callahan and John Bridle have given the best years of their life to people in crisis situations all over the world. Over 15 years they worked for Doctors Without Borders in the most difficult circumstances. They traveled Somalia, Palestine, Kenya, Afghanistan, East Timor, almost every hotbed in the world. They got addicted to war.
Tv-reporters Peter Tetteroo and Pieter Groeneveld met them time and again in crisis situations. They started a documentary about them, observing the changes taking place in Paula and John. These extremely disturbing experiences would finally kill them.
After they have finally returned home, we visit them again on Vancouver Island. What we found was heartbreaking. They have no rest. They feel alienated from life in the Western world. Both Paula and John suffer from feelings of guilt for leaving the people who needed them. It hits them like a sledge hammer now that they finally stopped and have time to reflect.
