I’m not really into war movies, mainly because all they do is highlight what a waste of time, resources, and human life wars are. This was no exception. Lebanon:

June, 1982 - The First Lebanon War. A lone tank and a paratroopers platoon are dispatched to search a hostile town - a simple mission that turns into a nightmare. The four members of a tank crew find themselves in a violent situation that they cannot contain. Motivated by fear and the basic instinct of survival, they desperately try not to lose themselves in the chaos of war.

You follow one tank and a small group of Israeli soldiers in one day of their war against Lebanon. Their mission is to go through a number of towns which have already been bombed and ‘clean’ the towns. Somehow they went off course and ended up surrounded by Syrians. It doesn’t go well.

This film won a number of awards so check it out if you are interested in war movies and/or the Israeli conflict.
