The Southern Mail
6.5
Based on the eponymous novel by Ladislav Ballek. An aging man wanders through a familiar rural landscape, triggering memories of his blond-boyhood in a small town. As he recalls everyday lives, adventures, and background events - war’s end, shifting borders, loyalties - the boundary between real and imagined blurs.
