It's about a Canadian unit, and the attention to detail is incredible. Filmed in Alberta on a decent budget.

Nice to see Canada being represented, but the love story angle?
Could turn out to be a WWI "Pearl Harbor", and we all know what a turkey THAT was!!!

Fascinating photos....

of the real battle at this site:

"What are you guarding, Man-at-Arms?
Why do you watch and wait?"
"I guard the graves," said the Man-at-Arms,
"I guard the graves by Flanders Farms,
Where the dead will rise at my call to arms,
And march to the Menin Gate."
