Has's color film, a sister piece to "The Manuscript Found in Saragossa," which I personally feel suits his style better in color; this film is even more outstanding than "Sar." It is an inner adventure. The story is set in the early days of World War II, where a young man takes a strange train to visit his dying father in a sanatorium. However, this place, about to be demolished, evokes many memories from his past. He is surrounded by past soldiers, mercenaries from the colonies, girls from his former life, and his parents...
