this movie takes war from three different perspective of three different men in different positions in the war and their coping methods. there is no main protagonist, therefore no hero, and we see three different ends to a horrible reality. the story is told wonderfully, with imaginative shots moving between real-time and remembrance. the only failing is the end, when the characters find their "redemption", but one man makes a choice that seems to conflict with his character...perhaps just to satisfy the need for a romantic conclusion, where a man forgets himself in the arms of a woman. beautiful and surprisingly original otherwise.
