Such a great movie. Great character development, acting, plot. A gem that most people won't even hear about, yet alone see.
Never seen a war movie like this before, amazing concept.
A direct and sincere film, simple in its script, but the message of a brotherhood that is not obvious is very significant, which can be born even in the midst of the war between enemies who have had the time get to know each other.
The world is full of conflicts, with ordinary people on each side who just want to live.
Maybe a bit naive and reminiscent of No Man's Land (from Bosnia), but nicely directed with good pacing and not overly long runtime with likable characters.
The original title of the film is Mandariinid.
