Land of Mine

A terrific script and acting highlight this Oscar-nominated, gut-wrenching, heart-pounding, suspenseful, heartbreaking, factually inspired, 90-minute 2015 film in which a hard-nosed Danish sergeant (Roland Møller) finds himself in charge of a group of mostly teenage, untrained German prisoners of war (Louis Hofmann, Joel Basman, Tim Bülow, Alexander Rasch, Leon Seidel, August Carter, Oskar Bökelmann, Karl Alexander Seider, Maximilian Beck, Emil and Oskar Belton, and Julius Kochinke) who are forced to undertake the extremely dangerous, delicate task of defusing and clearing millions of landmines buried on a Western Danish beach in 1945 following WW11.
