London, 1937. Two Quaker brothers, Paul and Charlie Lamb, sign a pledge of peace that only one of them will honour. Mr Morningstar wonders why his wife turns into a somnambulist at night, while their daughter, Miriam, comes home from the munitions factory with her stockings inside out. As the streets throng with khaki, the Lambs and the Morningstars must decide how to do good in a world transformed by evil. 'Of Love and Other Wars' is a profoundly moving tale of faith, longing, and decisions made in the split second of silence between bullets, whose repercussions last a lifetime.
