Lebanon

A powerful and timeless antiwar film from Israel by writer and director duo Samuel Maoz and Maoz Shmulik. The story set entirely in a tank on first day of the first Lebanon war in 1982 shows how the four young men experience the horrors of war. While the setting is specific, the story is universal that could be in any country at any time. Based on Samuel Moaz's own experience, the film gives a singular vision and point of view on how he experienced and seems to be engraved forever. YRCinema's coverage of the Toronto International Film Festival.
