PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The Guardians - DVD - An affecting human drama of love, loss, and strength unfolds against the backdrop of World War I. The women of the Paridier farm, under the deft hand of Hortense, the familys matriarch, must grapple with the workload while the men, are off at the front. New tools allow the women to triumph over the land, newfound independence is acquired, yet emotions are stirred especially when the men return. Rated: R REVIEW Critics Pick. --A.O. Scott, The New York Times With narrative restraint and a lapidary visual style, Mr. Beauvois opens up this isolated world with stirring emotional force. --Manohla Dargis, The New York Times A serious-minded and...rather powerful portrait of women getting by in a world where all the men are either gone or gone mad. --Jordan Mintzer, The Hollywood Reporter
