Blizzard of Souls (2019)
Directed by Dzintars Dreibergs & Inga Pranevska this film based on the novel of the same name stars Oto Brantevics, Raimonds Clems and Martins Vilsons. After the murder of his mother by invading German soldiers a sixteen year old Latvian joins the Russian army in World War I.
Films set in World War I are fairly rare and even rarer are those set on the Eastern front, that being said the actual plot is not overly original as war films go. Decently made the film is pretty clear and uncritical in its point of view. In the end not overly remarkable or touching.
3/5
