i absolutely love this movie . great and realistic look combat footage for one thing and a touching and genuine story also . the calm and understated manner of the lead character and franta and make him very likable . the human relationship in the story seem so very typical and possible of what you could expect in war time . the bond between franta and carel show the loyalty wartime comrade can have for each other and that be often describe in book and interview with veteran . the subtitle do not detract from the story at all and actually serve to underline the problem the czech pilot have in the raf . the postwar storyline be a great reminder that for many the suffering of ww2 do not end in 1945 and especially in russian occupied country . the cinematography be also very good . wish i could have see it on the big screen .
