This film reminds me of Jack's third point

 
 

Leaders want to keep the status quo.

 
 

Is this film encouraging or discouraging? The reality of evil?

 
 

The Tannenburg battle was one of the worst battles of the war.

 
 

The churched and unchurched can fraternize in a similar way.

 
 

Who is the real enemy? Sometimes battles are not worth fighting.

 
 

The movie portrays a deep sense of humanity. God ordains these moments to cross the line. The story portrays an unusual space of grace in the midst of chaos.

 
 

The most misunderstood person is the medic.

In East, the communist party members cannot go into any church. 30% of the communist party go to church. 60 million. This is not a war between humans, it is a spiritual war.
