The war in moving pictures

HERE are some of the best World War I movies ever made:

Poll Diaries (2010): Thirteen-year-old Oda von Siering leaves Berlin to go to her family’s estate in Estonia to avoid the war. Oda arrives at the estate with her mother’s coffin and a gift for her surgeon father, Ebbo von Siering. What’s the gift? A two-headed foetus to add to her dad’s laboratory, which stores various embalmed human body parts. Ebbo and Oda share the same love, science, but the different ways they express their love for it forms the crux of the story. Oda’s love of science helps her when she comes across a wounded Estonian anarchist and she successfully cares for him. A deep friendship builds between them but his anarchist ideologies take precedence. He wants to leave but Oda urges him to stay on for another day – little realising the consequences when he agrees.
