Clerambault
by Romain Rolland

“In a world consumed by war, the most dangerous act is to stand for peace.”
When the world descends into the madness of the Great War, one man dares to stand against the tide of nationalism to speak an uncomfortable truth. His courageous plea for peace transforms him from a celebrated figure into a social pariah, exploring the ultimate price of following one's conscience.
