An exciting survival movie
An escape movie that with the crazy stuff happening with ISIS across the world currently could touch too close to home for some, but it is well acted and keeps the viewers attention throughout.

Set near the end of World War 2. Focuses on a preteen boy and his younger sister and their plight for survival. Fairly bleak movie but gets the point across about the horrors of war and how it doesn't just effect soldiers, but civilians as well.

Good read for all ages. Read the first time as a child and reread recently and still enjoyed it. There isn't much dialogue but the descriptions are great. A good survival story that is slightly (probably barely) based on historical fact. Interesting and held up well.
