Synopsis

Philippe Torreton stars as a dedicated career soldier who eagerly serves the band of fifty "irregulars" under his command, with an often open disregard for the methods of his superiors. A fearless combat leader and warrior, Conan lays down his arms and attempts to extricate his men from the dirty war upon the signing of the 1919 Armistice. But peace does not come easy for some, and Conan's troops carry out their killing for nine months after the war has ended and must face the terrible consequences.

Critics' reviews

"A melancholy reflection on war and its consequences that demands great patience and thought from its audience but repays the commitment with real emotional rewards."
