Difficult film to rate, at least for me. Movies about war misery don't touch me that much anymore. Perhaps we have seen too many of these kinds of films or because we are bombarded daily with war suffering through the media, such as Syria, IS, refugees, etc. At a certain point it just dulls me. By the way, this is the ninth Czech film I've watched in the last five days and it will be clear by now that I prefer the more comedic films by far. I just want to be able to laugh. And I did that with Czech films such as Happy End (1967), Kdo Chce Zabit Jessii? (1966) and especially Sedmikrásky (1966).

3.0*

The atmosphere is immediately there. Two young lives on the run from war. Their agony, their exhaustion, the unfriendly dark forest and when there is a moment for relaxation but also pain and awareness of the miserable state they have found themselves in, there are the images from better times that have stuck on the retina because of youthful interests ...

The deep, heartbreaking contrast of their fears, insecurities and unhappiness with the banal comforts of a band of ruthless veterans of I don't know what origin is a climax in the film that best illustrates how far people can be broken by that wretched beast that wages war. is called.

Strong movie.

Beautiful use of animal symbolism in this poignant film.

The barking leashed German Shepherd with the free-roaming chickens. The determined and tireless black forest ants who energize the boys. And the highlight is the cats in the windows that only applaud the escape attempt.

4.5*
