In this episode, I talk with Jörg Rochlitzer (Executive Producer) and Bernd Wittneben (Actor/Executive Producer), about their film - Reveille (Official Selection at the 2023 Cedar Rapids Independent Film Festival)
Reveille Synopsis: In late 1943, an American squad engages in a skirmish with German soldiers along the Winter Line in central Italy. As artillery shells begin to rain down, the Americans must honor the rules of war and protect their wounded prisoners. Huddled together in a cave and made to see the enemy as human, the soldiers wrestle with unimaginable moral questions that lie outside the boundaries of nationality and allegiance.
