Audience Member an excellent film. A mixture of real footage from the Lebanon war and other footage. Really shows the devastation of Lebanon. Very moving story. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member There's a simple reason you must see this film, and it's something the synopses don't make clear enough: This is not a film about a war, is it a film of a war. That's right, they shot the thing during the actual war. Apart from the lead actors, everybody in this film appears as themselves. From the distraught relatives to the guys at the taxi rank, nobody is acting. It's all real. And because the director was basically making it up as he went (very skillfully I must add), the actors are not always acting either. This is my first ever review of a film on RT even though I've used the site for years. That's how blown away I am. (It loses half a star for a totally unnecessary sex scene.) Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member The film's emphasis is on the loss of innocent people where it is excellently executed, however, the performances were poor and not enough to cover the emotion required. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member Powerful film has a pseudo-documentary feel to it. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Loved the passion in the actors. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member This one comes from Lebanon. Compelling story & it scores a lot of points due to its docu-style execution. Starts with a promise and the aftermath of the war is shocking. Well made film loses out around in the end. Camera edit & music are first rate.
