After various skirmishes, two wounded soldiers, one Bosniak and one Serb, confront each other in a trench in the no man’s land between their lines. They wait for dark, trading insults and even finding some common ground; sometimes one has the gun, sometimes the other, sometimes both. Things get complicated when another wounded Bosnian comes to, but can’t move because a bouncing mine is beneath him. The two men cooperate to wave white flags, their lines call the UN (whose high command tries not to help), an English reporter shows up, a French sergeant shows courage, and the three men in no man’s land may or may not find a way to all get along.

参考翻译：
在各种小规模冲突之后，两名受伤的士兵，一名波斯尼亚人和一名塞族人，在两条线之间无人地带的战壕中对峙。他们等待黑暗，互相辱骂，甚至找到一些共同点；有时一个有枪，有时另一个，有时两者都有。当另一名受伤的波斯尼亚人苏醒过来时，事情变得复杂起来，但他无法移动，因为他下面有一枚弹跳的地雷。两人合作挥舞白旗，他们的队伍打电话给联合国（联合国最高指挥部试图不提供帮助），一名英国记者出现，一名法国中士表现出勇气，这三人在无人区可能或可能找不到一种相处的方式。—<jhailey@hotmail.com>
