The film explores an era we have often seen through the lens of history, but its depiction of post-war Germany is a revelation.

Keira Knightley ventures into dangerous territory when she has an affair with Alexander Skarsgard while her husband, Jason Clarke is running the British Forces there.

A parallel of what is left after war, grief, losing ones child, home or spouse and how it impacts their entire world is shown, their relationship becoming the collateral damage.

An intense watch.
