They had to fall in order to climb to the peaks, on which they would lay down in the calm of their finality and in the infinity of their suffering - and in the infinite calm of nitrocellulose, which has become their second mass grave. Through this film and its deliberate slow-motion of image and time, we can see for the last time the nameless and yet specific faces before being buried by the earth and covered by the snow from the heavens above the Alps. Through the color filters, frequently dominated by shades of yellow and red, we can catch a glimpse of the soldiers' last view, the sun they saw before it burned and engulfed them, the light and fire of the war machine, the last machine into which the proletarians in uniforms had to enter in order to attain painful calm. Thus, even though the film intentionally calms time and creates film contemplation with silence and meditative music, it evokes from the depths of nostalgia, into which it plunges the viewer, a restlessness in his spirit, calling for revenge and redemption.
