One of the best foreign films I have ever seen!

Rating: 10/10 (7 December 1998)

I will admit, I haven't seen a great deal of foreign films to compare with this, but regardless, this is one harrowing and satisfying film. The portrayal of children during World War II is wonderful and heartfelt, and the storyline is drawn beautifully, directly from a child's perspective. I loved the depressing ending of this film; it makes you think about how actions may seem inconsequential but are actually incriminating. This is one of the best of the year, a spectacular, creative triumph!
