Lili Marleen

The axis of story- a popular German song.

The main traits - a German soldier and his thoughts to the wife expecting a girl, an American soldier and the gift of his father as gauarantee about the survive of son.

And the retreat of Wehrmacht people , the instale of Airborne division, the friend of German soldier as very efficient sniper and a moving last scene.

Indeed, part of facts are familiar from D- Day Plus 2. But, more important, the story is about the connection with life before war as the key for survive.

Good performances and inspired well working simplicity of story . In essence , a short film about peace, family and a song as bridge between , at the first sight, so different people.
