When it comes to art inspired by World War II, the creative well is apparently never going to run dry. The latest example of this being the case is The Forgotten Battle, a newly released Netflix original movie about a decisive battle in the Netherlands -- one that, nevertheless, has not featured prominently in the panoply of WWII movies and similar art up to this point.
The setting is the flooded island of Walcheren, in the Netherlands province of Zeeland. It's November 1944, and thousands of allies are fighting the German army. In this roughly two-hour movie, three young lives intersect. They include, according to Netflix's synopsis: "A Dutch boy fighting for the Germans, an English glider pilot and a Zeeland girl who reluctantly joined the resistance." All of them "are faced with crucial choices that are not only about their own freedom, but also about the freedom of others."
