For a Lost Soldier
MBM Rating:
HOT ALERT: Maarten Smit, Andrew Kelley

Set in the Netherlands near the end of WWII, For a Lost Soldier is a sensitive and poignant story of a romantic relationship between a grown-up and a child. A lonely and uncertain 12 year old boy finds friendship and first love with a Canadian soldier.

Years later, as an adult frustrated by a lack of creative inspiration, he finds he can turn the painful ending of that relationship into a powerful new beginning.

Directed with grace and class, there’s a lyrical beauty and lush tone to this film which is subtle and under-stated. The audience is invited into the sleepy Dutch countryside and the simple lives of a peaceful, tolerant people. This movie is much more than an offbeat, foreign “gay love story”. “For a Lost Soldier” is a charming and captivating film that will stick with you long after you’ve seen it. It deserves to be seen.
