Review of Frantz

A slow but intriguing film set (mainly) in a small town in Germany, when a young woman whose fiance fell in the closing months of WW1 finds a young French man putting flowers on his grave (BTW why is he buried in a churchyard in his home town rather than in a battlefield war grave like almost everyone else? Were German practices different is or is this just a mistake by the film-makers?).

Hard to say more without a spoiler, but it's beautifully shot, acted and plotted.

Watched on BBC iPlayer on smart TV.
