Synopsis:

With an all-star cast led by Ethan Hawke, Gary Sinise, Kevin Dillon and Peter Berg, A Midnight Clear is a classic war movie that has won critical acclaim and a cult following. As the end of World War II approaches a group of American soldiers are assigned to watch activity amidst the stark snow covered landscape of the French-German border and soon discover a battle weary enemy as reluctant to fight as they are. With common ground established the German platoon offer to be 'captured' and a phony battle is staged to save honour. However a tragic misunderstanding has devastating consequences in this powerful depiction of war's insanity. Based on the novel by William Wharton.

Set in 1944 France, an American Intelligence Squad locates a German Platoon wishing to surrender rather than die in Germany's final war offensive. The two groups of men, isolated from the war at present, put aside their differences and spend Christmas together before the surrender plan turns bad and both sides are forced to fight the other.
