The Retrieval
Director:Chris Eska
Cert:18 Year: 2013 Length:92mins
Country:USA
Set during the American Civil War, The Retrieval tells the story of three Afro-Americans and what they had to do in order to survive. This is a meticulously shot period drama that eschews battle scenes in favour of character development and is all the more powerful for it.
