A Bag of Marbles (2017)

French war drama based on the 1975 film of the same name in which two young boys are sent away by their father to escape the grasp of the Nazis.

10-year-old Joseph Joffo (Dorian Le Clech) and his brother are given some money and a map by their father and sent on a dangerous mission to escape Nazi-occupied Paris. Making their way to the demilitarised zone in the South, the boys become unavoidably caught in the whirlwind of war. Aided by the occasional kind soul, the two young boys swerve and dart past obstacles set by Nazi soldiers to avoid succumbing to the dreadful fate of so many others in this situation.
