Dawn on the Third Day

You can find such films from time to time from Eastern Europe countries, without big budgets, psychological features that analyze the human behaviour, especially during war, in small villages. It looks like a movie from Yugoslavia but a French director made it, a French film maker specialized in war dramas, some kind of poor man's Pierre Schoendoerffer. Claude Bernard Aubert was a Indochina war vet but was not as good as Schoendoerffer. This one seemed lost but after all, it finally emerged. Good and solid story worth watching; it could have taken place in France during German occupation. This story makes you think about it during and after the viewing. Painful and ironic ending.
