A powerful film about a not well known Nazi massacre of the male population in a small town in Greece during World War II. It is nicely filmed and acted, and the story of the massacre is something I knew little about so bringing that to screen was interesting. Echoes of the Past is a film I enjoyed, even though it is very emotional, especially in the scenes with the separation of the families and the moments after the massacre.
It is not a war movie in the classic sense, but an honest look at the immediate and long term effects of the war.
Highly recommended.
