The Last Front is a Belgian epic period action drama film written and directed by Julien Hayet-Kerknawi.
[1] It is set during World War I and follows Leonard as he is driven to spearhead a resistance and protect his community during the German invasion of Belgium.
[3][4] The Last Front delves into themes of lost connections, grief, and the complexity of human nature amidst the chaos of war.
By focusing on the nuanced interactions between characters, the film offers a contemplative look at war, emphasising the internal battles faced by individuals as much as the physical conflicts that surround them.
[5] Hayet-Kerknawi said he deliberately wanted to move away from the usual tropes of World War I movies.
