A portrait about a society broken by the arbitrary violence of separatist groups. A masterful exercise about the power of force and the rawest and wildest instinct that populations had been rooting since birth due to a wretched state who don't provide nothing but decadence.

The trailer does not do justice to this remarkable film. Its beautifully shot and a brutal and authentic story, on one of the tragic wars of West Africa.

Marcellin i completely disagree, the film was immaculate and all choices made were effective and beyond exceptional

good film. I disagree with some stylistic decisions (some slow motion and reverse motion shots, out of place cello score) but it barely distracts from the content. A scathing and visceral portrayal of the life of child soldiers. Reminds me of Gipi's classic graphic novel Notes on a War Story. I watched without subtitles and I'm not even sure if there were supposed to be any, that being said; I hated the ending

Presentato (e premiato) a Cannes l'anno scorso, prodotto da Mathieu Kassowitz (L'odio), questo film crudo e desolato narra le gesta di un gruppo di soldati bambini e del loro giovanissimo comandante. Girato in Liberia, ricco di immagini indimenticabili che rimangono nella memoria per la loro crudezza, ...i protagonisti sono ragazzini (veri ex-combattenti) strappati alle loro famiglie, che vengono addestrati ad uccidere in una delle tante guerre civili che infestano l'Africa. Il regista, Jean-Stéphane Sauvaire, ha creato una fondazione (http://www.jmdfoundation.org) per aiutare il reinserimento di questi adolescenti, anch'essi vittime di una delle piu' grandi tragedie del nostro tempo. Purtroppo mai uscito in Italia, dove in compenso possiamo gustarci ogni anno un nuovo Vanzina o un Muccino, a scelta. Consigliatissimo, ça va sans dire.

A chaotic and claustrophobic kaleidoscope of un-medicated violence as raw and malicious as they come. Hardly a moment to breathe, Jean-Stephane Sauvaire makes a document of troubled youth; rabid with loneliness.
