The Tower

A moving film about three generations Palestinians living in a refugee camp. It's about what it's like to constantly long home and to hope it will one day be possible to return. The story is based on interviews with real people in a refugee camp. People who usually do not have a voice and who finally get to tell the world what they've gone through. Wonderful 3D dolls and settings are combined with beautiful 2D flashbacks. An important movie!

An useful film for discover and understand and feel. A family, a little girl and the history of her family, pieces of past and admirable meeting of stop motion and drawings and, not the last, a great portrait of war, forms of survive and the hope in its basic traits and nuances. Short, a lesson, real precious one, about what is important out of any form of illusion or ambiguity, impressive for gentle poetry and for profound wise storytelling.

Its a child's perspective of a problem created by grown ups. While the child is Palestinian, I dont find it to be biased, it simply portrays a reality that unfortunately many children have to live in. The real live stories are beautifully animated in stop motion and illustration, simply stunning.

This movie can be used in different teaching settings with youth as well as children , preferably with a discussion afterwards. War and oppression, through a child's perspective. Lovely movie.

Moving film about generations of palestinian refugees. A must to see.
