11: Episode 11 - The Route of Death

Despite there being a clear ethnic and religious division within the town of Domachevo, Poland, which was common in Eastern Europe, there was a true sense of community spirit within the town. Neighbour really did help neighbour. This community spirit was never more embodied than in the friendship between Ben and Andrei. From polar opposites of the town's wealth divide, this didn't stop the two friends playing together every day. But, marching towards them was a force that would pit neighbour against neighbour, religion against religion and...friend against friend.
