Our Patriots is a quiet exploration of survival and identity set against the backdrop of WWII. The atmosphere is heavy, yet there's a delicate touch in how the villagers interact with Addi Ba, the Senegalese rifleman. The pacing is deliberate, allowing for moments of reflection amidst the tension of war. What stands out is the human connection—how these seemingly ordinary people navigate the complexities of refuge and complicity. The performances convey a raw authenticity; you can feel the weight of their choices. Practical effects are minimal but effective, grounding the film in a stark reality. It's a unique angle on the war narrative, focusing less on the battle and more on the personal struggle for dignity and belonging.
