Synopsis

Five desperate men shoot themselves in order to be relieved from the horrifying frontline at the Somme, in WWI. A court-martial decides to punish them by leaving them alone in no-man's land, to be killed in the crossfire. Then all hell breaks loose and they all die. Or not? One of these men's fiancée, a young girl who can't walk since age 3, receives information that makes her suspect his boyfriend might have gotten away alive. So she embarks in a painful, long and often frustrating ordeal to find out the truth.

    his/her review : Superbe film, un peu lent sans doute. J'ai aimé les tours et les détours. Passez votre chemin si vous cherchez un film d'action.

    his/her review : A very long... movie! Good luck to watch it till the end. Not only is it not funny to wacth the battlefields of WWI for hours, but the story is very slow and very uneventful.
