Un été inoubliable

AkA An Unforgettable Summer. A young Romanian army captain's wife is, err, approached, by a senior office during a Ball. Her playful ridicule earns her husband duty at the Bulgarian border. Once there, she tries to make friends with Bulgarians peasants captured. The high command orders their execution, which her husband refuses to comply with.

The same senior office visits the post in person, give a last chance offer to the captain. The captain still refuses, but the executions happen anyway. The army captain is called back to the base and given a hard time.

When the same senior office came to the border, I half expected the wife to offer herself so as to save the peasant's lives. Perhaps the initial scene was there to make audience expect that.

Fairly decent movie. Very pretty woman good acting by both her (Kristin Scott Thomas) and her husband Claudiu Bleont). 6.5/10.
