It cleverly takes advantage of animation as the medium to tell this story. And then... Oh, the final scenes will haunt me for life.
Good animation and a powerful story of discovery and self realization
A harrowing depiction of what war does to innocent lives. Stunning animation blends nightmares of the mind with nightmares of real war
This movie allows you to take comfort in it's formal abstraction before tearing it all away with its terrific reality -check ending.
Surprisingly poetic for a documentary. A must see take on war and memory
One of the best animations movie I ever seen
