THE FILM WAS REALLY ENJOYABLE AND WELL DONE. JUST ONE THOUGHT, AS FAR AS I KNOW ALL MEDICS WERE FORBIDDEN BY THER GENEVA CONVENTION TO CARRY ARMS. I MIGHT BE MISTAKEN BUT I DOUBT IT.

@josnep Do not worry my friend, maybe you are right, but still this is just a fiction story made by us for pleasure.

[bluesky1538]

At first I thought, "how negligent of the British medic to leave his rifle at arms length of the supposedly incapacitated German soldier". The former couldn't know how latter would react at having an enemy before him. I like it how the Tommy's "mistake" ended up being his rescue.

A big congratulations to the producers and actors! Being accustomed to the usual Maltese crap that passes as drama on our stations, I wouldn't have guessed this was a Maltese production, if it wasn't for description!

This is one of the best short films I EVER watched... It is more impressive since it was made in Malta, because of low standard quality. I was absoultley AMAZED by the story and the scene of when they're in the war (especially the slow-mo part when the german gets hit!) :D Keep It up!!!
