Louis is a 27-year-old reservist and patriot, as is his childhood friend and longtime rival Bastien, who sees the war, like everything else, as an opportunity. One night, as their unit sleeps near the front, they're bombed. Louis and his comrades fall back in disarray and in the general panic lose their regiment. When they locate it again a few hours later, their general accuses them of desertion.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The director constructs a powerful narrative by contrasting naive patriotism with cynical opportunism, relying on a documentary-like precision in depicting trench life and the cold formality of the courtroom. The film explores the mechanism that turns men into cogs of a system where bureaucracy and fear outweigh truth.

What lingers after the viewing is a profound sense of injustice and a haunting question about the price of blind obedience. A sobering reminder of a dark, often overlooked chapter of history. — MovieFinder Editorial
