The Trench tells the story of a group of young British soldiers on the eve of the Battle of the Somme in the summer of 1916, the worst defeat in British military history. Against this ill-fated backdrop, the movie depicts the soldiers' experience as a mixture of boredom, fear, panic, and restlessness, confined to a trench on the front lines.
Anticipation turns to pure dread as young soldiers wait in the mud for the carnage of the Somme to begin. This claustrophobic look at the quiet moments before a massacre captures the restless anxiety of men facing certain death.
