User review:
It seems that various young Jews who survived the Nazis found their way to Canada, and Canadians end up telling their stories.
In this case, it was 1943, and the Jewish population of a small town in eastern Poland (now north-west Ukraine) was about to be “resettled”. Urged by his mother, Max, a 12-year-old boy, manages to escape, meets pre-arranged Gentile family friends, who send him to live with a farm family as their nephew. However, as the reward for finding Jews go up, it becomes too dangerous, and the farmer sends him to the woods, living with in a small cave with little equipment, surviving on foraging, and catching the occasional rabbit.
Along the way, Max meets and befriends a younger boy, who has also been hiding in the woods, but whose parents have not returned from finding food.
This tale is well told. The Northern Ontario location stands in well as the Polish woods. The boys who hold up the film acquit themselves well. My beef is that, over many months, the boys still seem reasonably well groomed, and their clothes not all caked in mud.
