Synopsis: Love Have I Known follows the relationship between English schoolboy James and a fellow German pupil, Otto. They realise their love for each other just as the Great War breaks, and the pair must now navigate their relationship in the knowledge that their nations are fierce enemies at war. Doing so will be far from easy, as they come to terms with the reality that they might have to face each other across the battlefield. It is a film about love lost, the hopelessness of war and the acts of chance that can dictate our entire lives.
