This is one of my favorite WWI movies. It got a pretty big budget compared to most of our movies.
(We don't have as big a budget for movies/shows compared to countries like USA, Canada etc.. as far as i know at least) The movie is about a man named Esben, a Southern "Jyde" that deserted from the German Empire. The movie is very well acted, and really exciting. If you have interest in History, or just interested WWI then i highly recommend it.. Even if you just like foreign movies i'd still highly recommend giving it a try.
The movie itself is not based on a true story, but many from Southern Jylland deserted and hid in attics (possibly also other places like forests, cellars etc) to escape the horrors of war.
