🎬 MovieFinder's Take

A reconstruction of the past with authorial interpretation. Facts and fiction are woven smartly — history lives rather than illustrates.

Good historical cinema is rare. This is one of those cases.

For those interested in history — alive, not textbook. For the erudite and the curious.

Director: Lovell Holder
