Powerful. All the hype aside I think there are few movies that deserve
the words "tour de force". This is one of them. It is a simple, spare,
animated movie about the one soldiers story of the Israeli invasion
of Lebanon and the subsequent massacres at the Palestinian refuge
camps by the Christian Phalangists in revenge for the assassination of
Geyamel Bashir.
If you go to the movie theatre with the intention of being
entertained, skip this one. If you go to the movies because movies
have the power to be transformative art, then make this one a must
see. There is a spare, unflinching, elegant, terrible beauty in this
film.
