Battle of Oituz (8–22 August 1917)

 From the Romanian movie "Triunghiul morții" (The Death Triangle) 1999.

This movie is up in full on Youtube but no subtitles. The Third Battle of Oituz was a confrontation between Romanian and, to a lesser extent, Russian forces on one side and German and Austro-Hungarian forces on the other, during the Romanian Campaign of World War I. The battle took place primarily in the Oituz valley on the border of Hungary and Romania, between August 8 and August 22, 1917.

    This is a powerful scene isn't it (despite a bit of over-acting in the 'fall down dead' department)? It would be good to see the entire film, I'd reckon.
