Internationally known as "A Love to Hide", this french movie portrays the persecution of homosexual people during WW2. It is one of the few movies that focusses on this. Interestingly, one of the main actors portrays a jewish girl and thereby making clear the tensions that existed in overall society of being persecuted. Who is going to be safe afterall in a society run by the Nazi people?!
The movie takes of pretty slow and I honestly have to admit that the first 30 to 40 minutes weren't that special. It is however after that point onwards - i.e. The arrest of one of the main actors - that the movie really takes of. And it then develops as a real gem that shows people not only how evil the nazi were, but also how some collaborators acted during WW2.
Overall, I think that this movie deserves a score of 7.1/10, which is a pretty decent score if you take into account the slow first 30-40 minutes of the movie. Resulting in a 7-star IMDb rated movie, this movie deserves to be on the watchlist on any one whom wants to know how gay people needed to fear for their lives during WW2.
