As Far as my Feet Will Carry Me (2001). An extraordinary tale of courage, perseverance, and the strength of the human spirit. Based on a true story, this tells the tale of a WWII german POW's escape from a Siberian prison and his travels across the expanse of the USSR to get back to his family. The story unfolds with a perfect level of pacing, and the characters that our protagonist runs into are heartfelt, sometimes for the worse. That our hero was a soldier for Nazi Germany does not matter here, for he is portrayed as he should be, as a man that went off to fight for his country and was duly punnished for it. The acting was awesome, and the cinematography even more so. An awesome tale of an epic journey. Ashe.
