In November 1918, a few days before the Armistice, when Lieutenant Pradelle orders a senseless attack, he causes a useless disaster; but his outrageous act also binds the lives of two soldiers who have nothing more in common than the battlefield: Édouard saves Albert, although at a high cost. They become companions in misfortune who will attempt to survive in a changing world. Pradelle, in his own way, does the same.

**How a Film is Made** Here is a film crafted with pure talent, overflowing creativity, an exceptional cast, and dazzling camera work. The director—who also stars in it and wrote the screenplay, adapting a novel—Albert Dupontel has the virtue of telling us, in a comedic tone (sometimes employing dark humor), the drama of the war's forgotten, the "cannon fodder" of armies who are neglected and abandoned by officers, the healthcare system, governments, and a whole network of scoundrels who profit from the postwar.
