| | Synopsis
|
Jules and Jim are best friends. They play together. They go to
school together. They grow up together. Through it all, Jim is always
a little ahead of Jules—a little faster, a little stronger. So, when
Canada goes to war against Germany in 1914, Jim is the first to
volunteer, but Jules is right behind him. They fight together. They
battle the cold and the mud of the trenches together. But in the end,
only one of them will see the Armistice begin at the eleventh hour of
the eleventh day of the eleventh month. A poignant tale of
friendship, The Eleventh Hour is also a story about life, death, and
the horrors and futility of war.
