Directed by Samuel Maoz, Lebanon is a movie inspired by the director's own experiences as a 20-year-old Israeli gunner in the First Lebanon War of 1982. A tank manned by four inexperienced soldiers moves into a town already virtually destroyed by Israeli Air Force with orders to "clean up." With most of the movie literally set inside the tank we get to see what the gunner sees and the terrible damage he inflicts. The movie was awarded the Golden Lion at the 2009 Venice Film Festival.
