Frontier

It’s 1943. and Franco has blocked the path of the Jews fleeing Nazi oppression over the Pyrenees mountains. At the border crossing in a small village, Manel Grau, a civil servant with a Republican past, decides to go against the orders of his superiors and aid the Jews across the border, with the help of Juliana, a fellow inhabitant of the village, and Jérôme, a French smuggler. Between them, they will start a crusade to help as many Jews as they possibly can. It is then that Manel will find himself embroiled in a dangerous odyssey that will awaken in him and his wife, Mercé, old ghosts of the still-recent Spanish Civil War.
WHY WE LIKE THIS FILM: A gripping WWII drama with a delicious twist at the end. This is NOT a Holocaust movie.
