Trivia
The taxi uses wood gasification as a fuel source. This was a widespread practice during WWII when petrol was scarce. The hissing drum at the back of the taxi is the gasifier unit.

Goofs
At the end, when leaving the Theatre to check to see if Eva is home, the mother leaves Right out of the theatre door, turns right, so is then BEHIND the theatre--instead of just going left, but then makes FOUR MORE RIGHTS which would have her going in the opposite direction, looping over where she was and back past the school, in a circle. Really weird choice of making her turn that way 5 times, instead of just showing some of that anxious run home and editing out the turns.

Quotes
Reggie: The other day I was invited to my sister's school to tell them about our squadron. So I told'em, 'One day, on a mission, out of a cloud, this fucker appears.' The kids start giggling. I say, 'We shoot one of 'em down, but all of a sudden, the fucker appears from behind us, right?' Now, the kids start really laughing. All of the sudden the teacher angrily interrupts me, goes: 'I think I should make it clear that Fokker is the name of a German aircraft.' Then I go, 'Yeah that's true, that's true. But these fuckers were Messerschmitts.'

Well made

Covering the WWII RAF raid 'Operation Carthage' Some harrowing scenes that added to the realism. And good acting from the children involved.

Apart from the necessary sub plot it's pretty much true to the actual train of events and well worth a viewing. Brings home the horrors of collateral damage in wars.
