The four American soldiers, Private Bartlett, Private Marquez, Private Eastwood, and Private Washington, are haunted by the brutal execution of an unarmed German civilian by their platoon sergeant, Sergeant Ox. The incident has shaken their faith in the cause they are fighting for and has left them questioning their own morality.
One day, the soldiers are given an opportunity to redeem themselves when they are tasked with infiltrating a German-held town behind enemy lines to gather crucial intelligence. They are accompanied by a local partisan fighter, who leads them through treacherous terrain and helps them navigate the town undetected.
As they move deeper into enemy territory, the soldiers confront their fears and doubts, and ultimately, come face-to-face with the horrors of war. Along the way, they encounter resistance from both the Germans and their own comrades, who suspect them of desertion.
In the end, the soldiers must make a choice that will test their loyalty and humanity, as they confront the true reality of war and the consequences of their actions.
Recon is a powerful and thought-provoking film that explores the moral complexities of war and the bonds that form between soldiers in the midst of conflict.
