Second silver screen adaption of the Finnish war book by Väinö Linna. The story is based on Linna's experiences as an infantry man in the Finnish army during the so called "Continuation War" (1941-1944).
A stark, unflinching look at the brutal realities of war. It captures the grim camaraderie and immense sacrifice of ordinary soldiers fighting for their homeland against overwhelming odds. Expect a grounded, humanistic war epic.
