Waltz with Bashir

I went to see ‘Waltz with Bashir’ last week. For those who haven't heard of it, it's an emotionally-driven movie about the 1982 First Lebanon War. It follows a 19-year old solider trying to reclaim his lost memories about the war and the ensuing Sabra and Shatilla refugee camp massacre.

The movie has also won a Golden Globe and is nominated for an Academy Award for Best Foreign Film.

If you are interested, read this review I found on Haaretz. It's emblematic of the issues Israelis face on a daily basis. And of course, watch the movie!
