In a society in loss of bearings, this course can allow these young people in lack of belonging to redefine "doing Nation". What values can the army instil in them? What will be the real scope?

THIN LINE is not always comfortable to watch but provides pressing critical comments from an unexpected angle. This "fascinating perspective on the standard thinking of our society", as the jury report stated, was rewarded with a Wildcard by the Dutch Filmfund in 2014.
