Featured reviews
When the nazis liberated the concentration camp inmates just ahead of the wave of victorious allies there were all kinds of prisoners who stayed behind. Not only had they lost touch with the world after so long an incarceration, but their very homes were gone, their families were gone. With no one and no home to go to it's no wonder so many stayed, and that includes little children down to babies, and...the dogs. The gestapo dogs. The very dogs that have been trained to go for the throat.
The underlying meaning in this film is the actual truth of humanity n not like Lord Of...
The premise is a bit similar, in fact even more harsher than Lord Of...
Children r saved from a Nazi concentration camp but they encounter hunger, thirst and dogs in a hostile war ravaged environment.
The best part is the acting n the child actors nailed it. The film does have some brutal n dark scenes, lil suspense n heart pounding tension.
The actual truth about humanity: v aint fighters, bt lovers. Our internal default is 2 work 2gethr. Despite everything, humanity is actually decent - Rutger Bregman.

Very very beautiful cinematography and explains the characteristics of post-war psychological behaviour . Beautifully captures the horror of man eater dogs and explains the divine quality of mercy even to one's enemies.
This is not your average World War II movie. This is not your average Holocaust movie. The is definitely not your average werewolf movie.
This film is something special. I don't watch many foreign films, but I think you'll like this one as much as I did because it's a film-lovers film - or an actor's film, perhaps.
The story follows a group of children recently liberated from the horrors of a Nazi concentration camp. Out of the frying pan and into the fire, they land in a huge, empty mansion in the care of sinister Russians. That's not the worst of it, though, because the place is surrounded by vicious animals. Are they escaped military working dogs or something much, much worse?
While I don't know the cast or crew, I am certain they are at the top of their game in their home country (Poland). Watch this film - I promise you can't guess the ending!

Absolutely stunning movie! Really good acting, these children are haunting me for days now.
Children who have been liberated from a concentration camp are left at in an abandoned palace in a forest without food and water. But the real nightmare starts when the house is besieged by hungry wild dogs that were used to guard the nazi camp.
