Sam Mendes, the Oscar®-winning director of Skyfall, Spectre, and American Beauty, brings his singular vision of the pivotal year of World War I, 1917, to the big screen.
At the height of World War I, two young British soldiers, Schofield (George MacKay of Captain Fantastic) and Blake (Dean-Charles Chapman of Game of Thrones), are given a seemingly impossible mission. In a race against time, they must cross enemy territory and deliver a message that will stop a deadly attack on hundreds of soldiers, including Blake's own brother.
