Karel an early catfish example?


Now with the social media phenomenon, strangers conversing from long distance is an everyday occurrence. So has impersonating someone else. Yes there was a happy ending to this film left for us to imagine. How many real catfish stories have happy endings?

Yes, online romances from afar are a dime a dozen these days. This is quite an interesting example of an early POW film. Escapes from the camp are barely an afterthought and the focus is on the parallel stories of everyday life in the camp and similarly at home over a 4 to 5 year period. Different!🐭
