The Boy Soldier

In the 1930s, a young boy named Simon Chalumet is unceremoniously shipped off to military school by his hard-nosed father, a gruff ex-soldier who seems determined to mold his son in his own militaristic image - or at least, his own. This stark choice of destination sets the stage for a powerful exploration of family dynamics, discipline, and identity that promises to be both poignant and unflinchingly realistic.
