The Mind That Went Silent: A Real Story from Normandy You’ve Never Heard Before | Shell Shock

Описание: Some men returned from the war with medals. Others came home with silence — a kind that no one could hear but them.

This story follows one of those men. He was found near Caen in the summer of nineteen forty-four, alive but lost to his own mind. Through his silence, we glimpse what war truly takes — not just lives, but memory, voice, and peace itself.

For the sake of this film, we call him Thomas. But his story belongs to thousands.
