Soldado Milhões(2018)

Soldado Milhões is a Portuguese war drama that follows Aníbal Augusto Milhais, a soldier haunted by memories of combat. The film centers on the Battle of La Lys, April 9, 1918, when German forces overwhelmed the Portuguese Expeditionary Corps' second division in a devastating assault that claimed over 7,500 lives. Milhais, desperate to protect his comrades, defies his captain's orders and stands alone against an entire German regiment. Outnumbered and isolated from his friends, he faces an impossible choice between obedience and survival. The narrative weaves together Milhais's struggle for peace with the brutal realities of World War I, exploring themes of courage, sacrifice, and the personal cost of war through the eyes of one man determined to save those around him.
