Why watch this film?
A British glider pilot, a Dutch boy fighting on the German side and a member of the Dutch resistance; set around the Battle of the Scheldt. Your choices differ, your goal is the same: freedom.
"Dutch production about the Battle of Zeeland, which took place on the Western Front during the early stages of the German attack on France and the Netherlands during World War II. 'De slag om de Schelde' brings different perspectives of the story, through the points of view of a British glider pilot, a Dutch boy fighting on the German side and a member of the Dutch resistance. The characters are quite interesting and make you want to know more about them. The production does a good mix of narrative with combat scenes, leaving the plot well balanced."
