Soar

Bholanath and Khudabaksh are two soldiers in the British Indian Army; sent off to Europe to fight in World War I. One happens to be Hindu and the other happens to be Muslim; but that doesn’t keep them from being the best of friends. When a mission in a surveillance balloon goes awry; these two gentle soldiers-along with an exceptionally ill-tempered squirrel-are set adrift high above the Western Front. What follows is a grand tragicomic adventure; taking them into the heavens and across a continent gone mad with war. Together; they learn about the worst humankind can do . . . and how true friends; however unalike their identities may be; can soar above it all
