The barracks' common room reeks of sweat and malice. Ethan, slender and tanned, is pinned to the grimy floor by a circle of sneering soldiers. They tear at his uniform, mocking his earring with cruel laughter. The air is thick with hostility as they treat him like prey, their hands rough and unyielding against his frail frame. The atmosphere is suffocating, a brutal display of bigotry in the heart of the 2002 conflict.
