Children and War

I saw a movie this weekend entitled Turtles Can Fly. It is a remarkable film about children living through war. Regardless of your thoughts or politics, this needs to be seen. It puts a name and a face to the sanatized versions we get through the media. The children in this film are victims of something terrifying and beyond their controls. Much like any abuse survivor, the decisions they make are those of children who are in circumstances that can have no empowering resolve. I am changed forever because of this movie. I am grateful that I saw it.
