Plot

Spring 1941. A group of soldiers under the command of Lieutenant Alexis Komninou, protects the border at Fort Rupel and prepares to accept the German attack.

Sinekatalog’s take

A Greek war film about soldiers defending a border fort against the German attack of 1941. Expect courage under pressure and patriotic tone, an option for viewers interested in lesser-known fronts of the Second World War.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
