Waltz with Bashir (2008)

In a dimly lit bar, filmmaker Ari finds himself engrossed in a tale spun by an old friend, a tale of a relentless nightmare featuring 26 ferocious dogs in relentless pursuit. Night after night, the same number of snarling creatures haunt his dreams. The two veterans soon unearth a haunting connection to their shared past, their service in the Israeli Army during the initial Lebanon War in the distant 1980s. Ari is struck by a chilling realization - the details of this crucial period in his life have inexplicably vanished from his memory. Determined to solve this intriguing enigma, Ari embarks on a global journey to reconnect with old friends and former comrades. His quest is not just to uncover the obscured truth about that tumultuous time, but also to decipher the forgotten facets of his own identity. As Ari plunges further into this labyrinth of the past, his memory starts to unfurl in a series of dream-like images, each more surreal than the last. This is a riveting exploration of a man's journey to unearth his past, a past that has slipped into the abyss of forgotten memories, and in doing so, he uncovers not just the truth about a war, but also the complex layers of his own self.
