Review: Flame & Citron



A stylish but stripped-down wartime thriller creates a claustrophobic atmosphere as resistance fighters Flame & Citron run out of places to turn and people to trust in their fight against the Nazis.

Yet aside from a common cause, the bond between the two main characters that is implied is never actually properly explained on film, meaning the end sequence showing their fates side by side, doesn't quite have the power that is intended.
