After world war I, Belgian orphans gather for shelter and protection
2 October 2013
The dialect is much like that of my parents who came from the area but I needed the English subtitles anyway.

The war leaves many children of the village without one or both parents. Many shelter on the small farm of one such family. Corrupt village politicians who earlier collaborated with the Germans want the little farm and scheme to get it.

It reminded me of many stories I heard about those days from my Father who was alive and active in the area at that time. I enjoyed it so much I plan to see it again. Given greater exposure and better executed subtitles, I can see this film winning awards.

See it!
