If we should die, trying to live, then at least we die like human beings.

The brothers: Tuvia Bielski (Daniel Craig), Zus Bielski (Liev Schreiber) and Asael (Jamie Bell) hide in the forest to escape the Germans. Soon, they are among a group of Jews. This group successfully defied the Nazis, hid in the forest and maintained a self-contained society while losing only about 50 of their some 1,200 members. The "Bielski Partisans" represented the war's largest and most successful group of Jewish resisters.
Of course, Romance blossoms as "forest wives" soon replace "village wives." and Tuvia and Zus battle constantly over which is more important - saving the people, or fighting the Germans.
Alexa Davalos, Jodhi May, Kate Fahy, and Iben Hjejle provided diversion for the men.
Not an excessive amount of fighting, the story was mainly about life in the forest and doing what you have to to survive another day.
