    • Synopsis
    • As they undergo 12 weeks of intensive training, young civilians are gradually moulded into Canadian Armed Forces soldiers. This disparate cohort of men and women with little experience in the ways of military life must adapt to a world governed by its own rules and values. They understand that, from now on, the group takes precedence over the individual, and country comes before self.
