A national film about the second war, I could not imagine, where was this film hidden, all this time, a great production, given all the adversities and difficulties in filming a war in the middle of the snow, it can be said that it is a great work, mainly because it focuses on Brazilians, our little soldiers, rural poor, and the panic that engulfed them, young people with their fears and fears, deserters of other nationalities, the other side of the war...

A national film about the second war, beautiful...
War drama about soldiers getting a second wind
This is a more grueling, workmanlike war movie than a battle driven one.
A Brazilian unit that specializes in disarming mines and is not as battle hardened yet as more veteran troops, struggles through the deep snow near Christmas time in Europe to get a second wind after a botched mission.
The acoustics aren't very good, and the subtitles aren't clear against the backdrop, and it has a slow pace, but those are the only complaints about this film. Otherwise, it's a a very credible war drama.
I believe this movie has a long shelf life, and will be one to survive the test of time in the future. Although there is much "traveling" which is tough to do on stage, this looks to be a nice stage drama.
In a book it would be better than in a movie!
The film is cool, I thought it would be really bad, but it's not, the costumes are good, the direction is simple, but the reason for my 6th grade is because the film lacks in one thing, being boring, I know the proposal it's not about showing the FEB's achievements in the war but the union between the members in the war, it's good and interesting, but the way the film approaches it would work better in a book than in a movie, because in a movie it became boring, almost nothing happens, the dialogs are legalzin but not enough to arrest the viewer. If it were a book, this proposal would go down very well, but in a movie it became boring, in terms of morale, it was about to close the player. I don't really recommend seeing it, I don't know, in fact I recommend reading it, Google Campaign in Italy. It will show Brazil in the second war there and it has very top stories. I highly recommend reading about the FEB in the Italian Campaign and its greatest achievement in Monte Castello.
