Conclusively shows we can stop war

Lucas Belvaux
I respectfully encourage all serious reviewers to avoid the video review option. The video review sacrifices both rapid scanning of diverse views, and the ability to create added value from automated text search.
I am adding this DVD to my list of Serious DVDs, while also using the product link feature, which I like very much, to connect you immediately to other DVDs I recommend.
The DVD is made even more powerful by being based on a true story, how a German opera singer was reunited with his wife in order to sing for the Crown Prince, then took here to the trenches and started singing such that the Scots responded, then the French, and ultimately they agreed to a local cease fire for the night.
This movie has to be viewed to appreciate the depth and reality of its message.
Other movies that have impressed me with their messages of insane war and possible peace:
Why We Fight
The Fog of War – Eleven Lessons from the Life of Robert S. McNamara
Peace One Day
Tibet – Cry of the Snow Lion
