A Very Long Engagement - Un long dimanche de fiançailles - 2004 - DVD - 133m

Five desperate men shoot themselves in order to be relieved from the horrifying front-line at the Somme, in W.W.I. A court-martial decides to punish them by leaving them alone in no-man's land, to be killed in the crossfire. Then all hell breaks loose and they all die. Or not? One of these men's fiancée, a young girl who can't walk since age 3, receives information that makes her suspect his boyfriend might have gotten away alive. So she embarks in a painful, long and often frustrating ordeal to find out the truth.
