This is a highly polished movie, and while that should not be a criticism, it is allegedly and indie film. Someone or group has highly funded this movie to push it through. It will be in theaters in a few months as it has been scooped up for distribution.
It's not your typical hollocaust, it has a very different story, but be prepared for the usual graphic depiction of the horrors of war.
