I wouldn't say that this is so much an anti-war movie as much as it is accepting of the fact that these things will keep on happening until the end of time, but it explores simple themes about peace, conflict and how war doesn't really solve anything. So it's an interesting, but not necessarily unique, approach. The film deals with these two having to co-exist in the same house despite the fact that both want to kill each for, literally, no reason other than the fact that their respective sides are at war. The film takes place during the Chechen-Georgian war and has two characters from each side injuring themselves after a small conflict with each other and being taken in Ivo into his house until they heal up accordingly.
I don't mean that in a derogatory manner whatsoever, I just mean the fact that the story is simply told. Part of it is the fact that the story really is very simple. It's not what I would call a great movie from beginning to end, but I do think it offers a really compelling and satisfying story. I guess first things first would be the fact that I thought this was a really damn good movie.
Don't really know where I would even begin the review for this movie.
