Children are not brought up in society to focus on politics. They are often encouraged to enjoy their life and their childhood. It is often said that kids should just be kids. But when there is a political strife happening all over the world, the politicians, who are just background noise for most children, become their Judge, Jury and Executioner.
Brian Brample and his friends were finishing off their high school careers caring more about their weekend paintball games than the world that surrounded them. But with a few political moves government brings back the draft in attempt to arm the nation for an unpopular overseas war. Brian and a few of his friends become the unlucky few who are conscripted to serve in a war that has a near 100% mortality rate.
In protest of strangers in Washington deciding their life was the appropriate sacrifice for the country, they decide to stage a protest of the war and draft by engaging in a mass suicide. The message is clear that the youth of the nation are willing to die for their causes, not Washington's. But, when Brian Brample is the sole survivor of the event, the government may have just found their scapegoat to erase his friend's message.
