About the Movie
The First Lebanon War – June, 1982. A lone tank is dispatched to search a hostile town that has already been bombarded by the Israeli Air Force. What seems to be a simple mission gradually spins out of control. Shmuel the gunner, Assi the commander, Herzl the loader and Yigal the driver are the tank’s crew, four 20-something boys who have never fought in a war and are now operating a killing machine. Though trying to remain brave, the boys are pushed to their mental limits as they struggle to survive in a situation they cannot contain, and try not to lose their humanity in the chaos of war. Writer-director Samuel Maoz’s raw and visceral film is based on his own experiences as a twenty year old novice soldier serving in the Israeli army during the 1982 Lebanon war. Using his own vivid recollections to bring us inside an Israeli tank during the first 24 hours of the invasion, Maoz restricts the film’s action entirely to the tank’s interior and shows us the outside world only—as the four young soldiers themselves see it—through the lens of a periscopic gun sight. The cathartic process of writing and directing LEBANON allowed Maoz to finally free himself of the events that he had experienced twenty-five years earlier.

剧情简介
　　影片讲述了一个真实的故事，1982年6月黎巴嫩战争的第一天，四名年轻的以色列士兵独自驾驶一辆坦克，被要求配合一队地面士兵作战。该部队的第一个任务是进入黎巴嫩平民村庄，清除那些看上去明显是巴解放组织的恐怖分子。指挥官贾米里描述特派团的行动要领是要“迅速简单”，然而随着士兵进入村庄，看似简单的任务很快变得复杂，最终变成了一场屠杀噩梦。在特派团出动那一刻起，他们和其他部队失去联系，四名士兵就被带到了一个死亡陷阱当中。
　　《黎巴嫩》表现了混乱复杂的中东战争，这部电影不可避免要涉及到政治问题。但最重要的则是，导演希望通过电影描绘四个二十出头年轻人的惊醒，他们突然发现自己身处杀害平民的残酷现实中，杀人成为他们必需做的事情。他们都不是英雄，也没有人想成为英雄。他们的生存本能和人性价值观在激烈斗争，这是一出毛骨悚然的人间悲剧。
