Mama, I'm Alive is the story of four German POWs who are talked into joining the Russian Army during World War II. Most of the movie is made up of them being prepared for some vaguely defined mission, coupled with flashbacks of their experiences as soldiers and prisoners. The story was interesting although frustratingly vague at times. The movie never fully explains why the four characters made their choice or what exactly it is that they are expected to do. But the acting is solid and the moral dilemma caused by their switching sides is presented well.
