Tank soldiers beside the sunflower

At the beginning, it starts with a beautiful sunflower, which is completely opposite to this war-themed story. At the end, we finally see the tank, which is still based on the sunflower. conveyed.
The film space is very small, and we don't get to see the appearance of the tank until the end. The rest of the story is in the tank. The observation mirror on the tank plays a great role in connecting the interior and exterior, as well as observing the situation of people in war, and it has a great effect on stimulating the mind.
The performance of the four people in the tank also changes as the film progresses, and a lot of close-up shots directly attack the reaction of the four people in the face of the war.
Lots of shaking, fluid running around, it could be blood, it could be motor oil. Create a very depressing environment.
War is particularly disgusting in the face of human existence.

A small window sees a big world, a small space sees humanity, the cruelty and fear of tankers, the tragic and absurdity of war, this is what a war movie should look like. Samuel Maoz is too particular about the sense of form, and every frame is Like a photographic work, the tank periscope replaces the camera, the panic close-up, numbness, indifference, and the roar of the body can tear people apart at any time. The relationship between the world outside the armor and the inside of the tank is so harmonious and unified, the overall simplicity of the film, Clean, powerful, and powerful.

A dull war film. The lens is unique. Not to be ornamental
