Filmmaker Michael Akkerman chatted with our Gadi Elkon about his tremendous WWII drama REVEILLE.
In late 1943, an American squad engages in a skirmish with German soldiers along the Winter Line in central Italy. As artillery shells rain down, the Americans must honor the rules of war and protect their wounded prisoners. Huddled together in a cave and made to see the enemy as human, the soldiers wrestle with unimaginable moral questions outside the boundaries of nationality and allegiance.
Michael and Gadi discuss the vast research and many interviews done to forge this highly authentic WWII film. Michael talks about the incredible cast, the many languages on set and on screen and so much more.
Here is our interview with Filmmaker Michael Akkerman:
