Legion of Honor

Rebuffed in love and uncertain of life, Simon is the story of a young Englishman's physical and spiritual journey during Algeria's battle for independence from France. Driven by romantic illusion to join the French Foreign Legion, Simon learns what it truly means to be a hero. A timeless, coming of age story set against the epic, sweeping landscape of North Africa.

My take

A soul-searching journey wrapped in sand and silence. For anyone who's felt lost and needed a grand landscape to find themselves in—this is the film that trades easy answers for hard-won wisdom.
