With the world exploding all around him and gunfire ringing in his ears, a soldier lies bleeding from a critical wound. In his hand is a picture of his mother. As he slips away, he sees all of life in front of him, slipping into oceans and through forests as he heads back to his home and the breaking hearts of his family.
