Kippur (2000)
"Kippur" is an intense film showcasing the horror of war with grim elegance.

"Kippur" throws you into the stark reality of war without a morality lesson or the feeling of vindication of films such as "Saving Private Ryan". And it does so with almost beautiful horror. There is no comment, no explanation, and you never see the enemy; tanks dance across the muddy, barren landscape accentuating the terrible meaningless loss of life. The detachment between the characters during the long day on the front evacuating the wounded clashes with the warmth shown even between strangers off the battlefield. This movie is very powerful due to its unedited and unabridged style. A must see.
