Never let go...
From the director of 'Amelie' comes this very different love story. Set in France near the end of World War I, it tells the story of a young woman's relentless, moving and sometimes comic search for her fiancée who has disappeared.
As the Great War draws to an end, a young French woman's greatest fight is about to begin. Mathilde (Audrey Tautou) has received word that her fiancé Manech (Gaspard Ulliel) is one of five wounded soldiers who have been court-martialed and pushed out, to their almost certain death, into the no-man's land between the French and German armies. Unwilling to accept that her beloved is lost to her forever, Mathilde embarks on an extraordinary journey to discover the fate of her lover.
At each turn, she receives a different heartbreaking variation on how Manech must have spent those last days, those last moments. As she draws closer to the truth about the five unfortunate soldiers and their brutal punishment, she is drawn deeper into the horrors of war and the indelible marks it leaves on those whose lives it has touched...
Featuring another fantastic performance from Audrey Tautou, this film has an amazing cast full of France's finest.
Oscar nominated for Art Direction and Best Cinematography.
