The most impressive thing in the movie is the children played by refugees, in groups, many of them are disabled, if you count everyone's psychological trauma, I think it should be a 100% disability rate. More than ten years have passed in the blink of an eye, and I don't know how many of them survived, and what kind of life the survivors are currently living. From what we know, the region is still volatile, creating more and more refugees, and the birth of terrorist groups like IS. There are both interference from Western countries (the American soldiers in the film) and conflicts deliberately provoked by major powers for their own interests. In short, the situation is getting more and more complicated and worse. The fate of these children reminds me of a scene in the BBC documentary "Africa". The mother sea turtle lays countless eggs on the beach, and the hatched baby turtles have to crawl from the beach to the sea by themselves. The birds of prey (forgot what it is) in the sky will prey on them when they are just born, only a few can climb to the sea to survive, and most of them become meals for others. This is how nature plays out, cruel but balanced. And this method has also been applied to human beings for thousands of years, the bloody killing in wartime, and the glorified intrigue competition in peacetime. What I can't figure out is that human beings, the spirit of all things, have evolved for so long, with so many material inventions and brilliant humanistic thoughts, but in the end they can't change their animal nature!
