Do you understand the agonies of wars?

 

We, the new generation in Hong Kong in particular, seldom experience wars. Yet, in some parts of our world, countless people including the young and children who should be dynamic went through the agonies of wars. Could you understand their feelings? In an unusual 90-minute journey, “Warzone 90” will bring you on a ruthless battlefield, and let you experience the taste of despair and the glimpse of hope.
