Mark VE Day with one of the greatest, hard-hitting WWII films of all time.
Thirty-five years since its release, and on the 75th anniversary of the end of WWII, Come and See remains one of the greatest films of all time, losing none of its gripping poignancy, and its heart-rending anti-war message.
We follow Byelorussian teenager Flyora on his journey through hell and back. Aleksei Kravchenko, who was 14 when the filming started, will amaze you as the film's lead. The film that inspired Steven Spielberg's war epics is harrowing, but you really must come and see it.
