Review of A War

A War (2015)
9/10
Other face of war
3 April 2016
It is a film that makes us reflect on the situation that a soldier is mentally faced in battle. When Søren says Claus "It's alright to be sad. We're all sad. It's completely alright" explicit the image they have and which ourselves help to build of soldiers as heroes, inhuman deprived of the right to sentimentalize. The oppression and hierarchy is very large in the military field and in many cases leads to suicide (the statistics are large but unknown). I recommend the film to all who are interested in discovering another face of a soldier, who is faced with issues such as the distance from family, loss and guilt. A human look underexplored so intensely in many war movies.
