Beaufort
HistoryDrama
BEAUFORT tells the story of LIRAZ LIBERTI, the 22 year-old outpost commander, and his troops in the months before Israel pulled out of Lebanon. This is not a story of war, but of retreat. This is a story with no enemy, only an amorphous entity that drops bombs from the skies while terrified young soldiers must find a way to carry out their mission until their very last minutes on that mountaintop.
VIBE
A suffocating sense of dread permeates this film. It's the feeling of being trapped in a slow-motion countdown, where every moment is heavy with unspoken anxieties and the quiet despair of a mission's end. The atmosphere is thick with the weariness of young men waiting for a war that's already over.
