The Innocents (2016)
7/10
[7.5] Sadness in those walls, joy in that photograph
15 April 2023
A gripping and simple movie showing and showcasing one of the ugly facets of any war, the matter represented world war II events after it ended and its horrors still being there, remaining and present; in Poland, in December 1945.

Everything was more simple back then and you can feel it, you can sense that by their angelic faces, by their illogical behavior mixed with hope, emotions and laced with dejection and anger, by their hearts beating so true, by their limpid eyes mirroring both the horrors, sadness and to some extent joys of their lives.

The movie is one simple one, hell of an experience, a mosaic of human nature and best represented by its title. "Les innocentes" !
