The characters in this film, unlike the heroes of the romantic works, fight for the good of the collective and the nation, but succumb to emotional weakness and personal motives. The film has a deep style and dignified color, which realistically restores the hard and cruel fighting life of the French underground guerrillas during World War II. It creates a few heroic characters in a low-key and simple documentary style, and puts them in a helpless and crisis-ridden situation. Difficulties are clearly manifested. The film also uses a variety of artistic methods to vividly and forcefully express the author's reflection on the resistance movement and its era. It was officially released in mainland my country, and the performances of the male and female protagonists were quite eye-catching.
