We Are

In the year 2026, entire countries fall into chaos as governments crumble due to a lack of natural resources. The streets of the major cities of the world are littered with corpses. Money has lost all value and the greed of mankind has robbed the planet of all its worth. Water, the liquid of life, is nowhere to be found...until it is.Desperate to harness the wealth of pure water discovered in Japan, world powers deploy troops in a desperate race to monopolize it before the others. Veteran U.S. Marine Gunnery Sergeant, J.D. "Gunny" Hunter, is called up from retirement at home with his wife and children and their farm, to be thrown into a global conflict against the Chinese and perils over the most precious of resources...On the other side of the world, Captain Jianguo Li of the People's Liberation Army answers his country's call to war and finds himself on an island in Japan, locked in an all-out war with the United States and her alleys, far from his wife, children, and grandmother in China.We Are is the story of two men from very different cultures discovering that all men want the same things, and maybe it is within their power to help each other while also helping themselves.
