Susan Sarandon, Gabriel Byrne, Christopher Plummer and Max von Sydow star in this powerful drama about a group of friends who reunite 35 years after their release from a Nazi internment camp during World War II. Based on the gripping novel from author Matt Cohen, director Paolo Barzman's stirring adaptation explores the immutable bond the survivors share and the unmistakable impact it has on their relationships with those around them.

Not much here in Movie #43. The add says "powerful" --- missed it. some good acting, with not much of a script. Who thought this would make a good film? Nothing new, and when it was all over, so what ? We know we need to move on..............we know people were in death camps and it changed them forever, and we even know that there were victims by association --- their husbands, their kids, and their grandkids were all affected negatively. We also even know some "good" lingers in their thoughts and gives the survivors guilt feelings about that. So once again, nothing new here. We were waiting for the pay off that never came.
