The story follows Clem Glass, a once-idealistic photojournalist who believed in the power of photography to reveal truth and beauty. His perspective shifts dramatically after he witnesses the horrific aftermath of a genocidal massacre in Africa, challenging his beliefs and forcing him to confront the darker realities of human existence. This experience profoundly impacts his understanding of art, morality, and the role of a journalist in documenting suffering and violence.
