Proto's Recap
The day is April 6th, 1917. Two British soldiers are tasked with a seemingly impossible mission. They have to deliver a message that will halt 1,600 men from walking into an ambush. Lance Corporal Blake’s older brother is one of them. In order to do it, they must travel through the frontline and into enemy occupied territory. They have less than 24 hours to accomplish this task and must leave immediately. For the rest of the film we see them face surreal obstacles that only the Great War could have produced.
