Waltz with BASHIR...

The waltz is a ballroom and folk dance, performed primarily in closed position.

Waltz with basher is a stunning movie with a great narration style. When the movie starts with 26 dogs running for a person, it literally scared me off.. The movie was haunting and will give u insomnia. The psychological reasoning given in it is of great help… To know lot of things not only about the soldiers but also about normal human beings and people who wear a parda to stay untouched by things happening around them. War always sucks. I have seen lot of war movies that are best in portraying war. But, using animation to do that was a nice try and was successful in making it. It is a documentary so u will find stark portrayal of incidents that happened in Lebanon and u won’t find it exciting or adventurous. What trauma people might have gone as a part of the war whether it is soldiers or families. I don’t know whom to pity whether the people who killed those citizens on orders and have haunting thoughts or the one who suffered the loss. War is always tough for all. Whether it is for the one who started or the one who suffered.

And I do fore warn you it is not the piece of cake that everybody can eat. It is like a corn soup which is liked by only few…. Similarly the movie also… But, watch it u will not regret the time spent on it. But, you will regret the time spent in this world where human values come only after human loss.
