Thông tin về bộ phim này

Fleeing from the Soviet secret police, Estonian fencer Endel Nelis returns to his homeland and finds work as a children's sports instructor. Despite the objections of school administrators, Nelis begins teaching the students competitive fencing techniques and fencing soon becomes a form of self-expression for them. Endel quickly becomes a role model and father figure to the children, many of whom have been orphaned as a result of the Russian occupation. When the children are invited to a fencing tournament in Leningrad, Nelis must make a choice: put his safety first or risk everything to take the children to the competition. Directed by acclaimed Finnish filmmaker Klaus Härö, THE FENCER is a touching drama about trust, love and finding one’s purpose.

This was one of my favorite movies of 2017. Our group went to see it at the Front Row Theater on San Ramon and everyone loved it. I can't wait for it to be released on DVD.
