Come and See
“The cruelest side of war.”
The invasion of a village in Belarus by German forces sends young Flyora into the forest to join the weary Resistance fighters, against his family's wishes. There he meets a girl, Glasha, who accompanies him back to his village. On returning home, Flyora finds his family and fellow peasants massacred. His continued survival amidst the brutal debris of war becomes increasingly nightmarish, a battle between despair and hope.
This is a profoundly harrowing descent into the psychological and physical ravages of war. It feels like a waking nightmare, a visceral, unflinching journey through unimaginable atrocities seen through innocent eyes. The film's surreal dread and relentless despair leave an indelible, traumatizing mark, forcing you to confront the true cost of conflict.
