Our take
WILL is a tense historical drama set in Nazi-occupied Antwerp, where young officers face impossible choices between survival and conscience. Guns, threats, beatings, and antisemitic cruelty sit in the story, and strong language includes the f-word and s-word. Drinking and moral pressure keep the mood heavy rather than adventurous. We land at MA 15+ and up because occupation violence and persecution need older teens with a parent nearby
Uplifting themes
Conscience and quiet courage still flicker against collaboration. The film asks what integrity costs without offering easy answers A few characters try to protect others under crushing pressure. Many authority figures model fear and compromise instead of clear courage Occupied Antwerp, police collaboration, and Jewish persecution offer a grounded WWII classroom conversation. Parents can unpack how ordinary jobs became moral traps
Story (may spoil tone)
Two young police officers find themselves torn between collaboration and resistance as they navigate Nazi-occupied Antwerp during World War II.

Talk after watching
- Characters argue over collaboration versus resistance. Where would you draw a line if saying no put your family at risk?
- Hate speech and power abuse fill the streets. How do you recognise when following orders stops being neutral?
