What A Bag of Marbles is
You're a Jewish boy evading Nazis in occupied France. Your family splinters under pressure, but you and your brother escape. Word of mouth becomes everything. The director lingers on faces, the camera itself seemingly unsure who to trust. The film considers childhood in wartime.
