| Summary |
This film focuses on the presence of the human spirit in battle. Despite its extreme graphic depiction of war, the film was recognized as a major cinematic breakthrough. KIPPUR is a gut-wrenching journey through beautiful landscapes ravaged by gunfire, exploding mines, fear and desolation. KIPPUR takes place in 1973 during the Yom Kippur War, in which Egypt and Syria launched attacks in Sinai and the Golan Heights. Although the story is told from the perspective of Israeli soldiers, the film is far from being an exercise in propaganda. We are led by Weinraub and his friend Ruso on a day that begins with quiet city streets, but ends with death, destruction and devastation of both body and mind. Nominated for a Palme d'Or at the **Cannes Film Festival**. |
