The Russian-Georgian war in the western lens, Russia massacred civilians, and Georgia almost destroyed the country in eight days.

This movie is awesome. It shoots the war between Russia and Georgia from the perspective of an American journalist, and gives a documentary feeling alive. At the beginning, I solemnly quoted the famous American saying: the first victim of war is the truth. The first sentence at the beginning is that the play is based on real history, and then it begins to say with rhythm that 5 war correspondents died. I would like to dedicate this film to them. If we don't say that the beautiful country is a cow, the skill of reversing black and white is also perfect. In the film, all kinds of Russian actions in the process of invading Georgia are listed from the perspective of American journalists, including killing civilians, indiscriminate bombing, tearing up the ceasefire agreement, etc. Today, let's walk into this American-made Russian invasion movie "The Five-Day War". Interested friends can just look at my explanation. After all, the original film has seen the destruction of three views.

In 28, while the Beijing Olympic Games was in full swing, the South Ossetia War broke out between Russia and Georgia. Since August 1st, there have been several exchanges of fire between Georgia and South Ossetia. In the early morning of August 8th, Georgia launched a full-scale military operation and quickly controlled more than two-thirds of South Ossetia, surrounding its capital Tskhinvali.

Russia officially invaded Georgia and took the lead in launching the attack. Russian troops, tanks and helicopter gunships crossed the border. A full-scale attack was launched on Grukia, and four Russian fighter planes flew over the village, targeting the houses accurately and bombing them directly. Then, a large number of Russian mercenaries broke into the village and the mercenaries gathered the villagers together. Find out the village chief and the sheriff and directly cut their throats to demonstrate, then pour gasoline on them, set them on fire, and helicopter gunships bombed them in the air indiscriminately. Panicked civilians fled for their lives, women were robbed, men were shot dead on the spot, and soldiers stood in front of the bodies and took pictures to show off. The village was ransacked and was in ruins under the bombing of helicopter gunships.

In order to beautify Georgia, the film forcibly added a lame story of a war correspondent being rescued by Georgian peacekeeping forces, which became the original motivation for war correspondent Andrew to risk his life to record Russian atrocities.

At this time, Andrew and his colleagues were attending a local wedding, when four Russian warplanes suddenly came at a rapid speed. Bombing the houses, after the bombing, the wedding scene was a mess, many guests fell in a pool of blood, and the bride cried in pain with the killed groom. All this was recorded by the photographer, and this was just the beginning. Then Andrew drove the wounded to the local hospital.

The next day, Andrew met Talia who was looking for his lost family, and after talking, he decided to help Talia go to the northern village where his family was located. On the way, the officer warned them that if they saw people wearing white armbands and black hoods, they must not shoot, and they must run away, otherwise they would only die. Because these people are foreign armed forces supported by the Russian military, Andrew said goodbye to the officers and drove to a hotel, successfully finding Talia's sister and father. However, before they could be happy, several Russian fighters roared across the sky, accurately locked the houses and bombed them directly.

The next day, when everything was calm, Andrew woke up from his sleep, and he came out alone, enjoying the rare peace around him in an orchard. Just then, a slight tremor suddenly occurred on the ground, and then on the hillside in the distance, a large number of troops were crossing the border, which were soldiers with white armbands and black hoods. Behind him were a number of tanks and helicopter gunships, which approached in the direction of the village angrily. Andrew suddenly realized that something was wrong and hurried back to wake everyone up and hide. Soon the Russian army broke into the village, and the soldiers fired machine guns and drove all the villagers out nearby. Everyone was gathered by a river, and the chief wanted to see their village head and sheriff, but no one dared to admit it.

Then the officer dragged an old woman out and shot her three times in the leg. The old woman fell in the stream and cried in pain. At this time, the village chief and the sheriff came out voluntarily, and the soldiers came forward to cut their throats directly, then poured gasoline on them and set them on fire. The burning fire turned the bodies into ashes. All this was photographed by several people hiding in the distance, and then the chief ordered all the villagers to be killed and the villagers fled everywhere. Helicopters in the air aimed their targets at civilians and fired missiles for bombing. Then the soldiers began to sweep the village, taking away anything useful or convertible. Women were robbed, men were shot dead on the spot, and livestock in the village were also the targets of their looting. A girl was forced to ride a bicycle for their entertainment, and all the houses were bombed and destroyed by helicopters, leaving the villagers fleeing in the streets with no hiding place. The lives of unarmed villagers are like ants, and the ubiquitous tanks and soldiers may kill them at any time. Andrew panicked and hid in a house, and the soldiers searched around, when a young soldier came in to search. He suddenly heard the crying of the child, opened his clothes and found a couple hiding inside. Looking at the panicked eyes, the young soldier relented and let them go. But when he just went out to report that no one was there, the child's crying alarmed other mercenaries, who immediately shot and threatened the people inside. Andrew several people had to come out and show their identity as journalists, only to be shot down by the other side, and the officer came over and found the camera they were shooting with. Then they were taken to the Russian military commander, who found out on the Internet that Andrew had reported on the Iraq war before.

He asked the photographer to tell the password of the memory card, and the photographer told the other commander to turn on the camera, but it was only the wedding footage taken before. The photographer in the cell quietly told Andrew that the reason why the Russian army didn't find the evidence of killing civilians was because he changed the memory card on the camera in advance, and that memory card is now hidden in the house where he was hiding. The commander interrogated Andrew and the photographer separately. Just as he was about to press the photographer, a Georgian assault team suddenly broke through the window. All the armed men on the scene were killed. They were the same team that had escorted Andrew and others here before. Then the team quickly rushed into the basement to rescue Talia and others, and the heavily armed Russian elite was directly killed. It was really cool.

Then the team rushed out to prepare for evacuation, and the mercenaries outside tried to intercept it, and the two sides launched a fierce battle. Seeing more and more enemies, mercenary tanks are also advancing rapidly. In an emergency, they started the car and fled. At this moment, a shell of the tank hit, but fortunately, the car turned the corner and hid smoothly. But the mercenaries didn't leave it at that. They pursued after them, and the team could only retreat and fight back. Then Andrew suddenly remembered that the memory card had not been brought back, which was a powerful evidence to make the crimes of the Russian army public. Andrew had to go back to the house where he had been hiding and get the memory card back. The mercenary bit the squad like a madman, and the squad fought with the mercenaries. A tank fired shells again, and the captain set up a shoulder-mounted rocket launcher. When a rocket went down, the rear vehicle was directly blown over.

At the same time, Andrew got the memory card back smoothly. Then they quickly joined the squad. At this moment, two armed men brought Talia's father out. Just as his little daughter got up and shouted, one bullet hit her in the middle of the abdomen, and then another shot directly knocked her out of the car. However, the car didn't stop, watching her sister's body gradually leave her. Talia was so sad at the moment that she could do nothing.

After the war, mercenaries lit cars to celebrate the victory, soldiers fired their guns and shouted slogans, while innocent villagers married with children left the village. Since then, I have lived a life of displacement. In Grice, eight helicopter gunships hovered in the air. Andrew and several others came here with the team. They saw Georgian troops and civilians withdrawing from Grice. The captain asked the soldiers what was going on, and the soldiers told them that the president had ordered a unilateral ceasefire, and all the troops would return to Tiberius to defend the capital. The captain was very angry. He said that he would not leave easily and abandon his country. He would continue to fight. Now they must find a place with a media center and publish all the evidence they have photographed in front of the people of the world. Then the team went retrograde into the city, and now all the moving vehicles here have become targets of Russian attacks, and Russian helicopters are sweeping the city. The ground troops will arrive here soon, and they need to find a place to take refuge. However, during their escape, they met another group of war reporters, who happened to have a satellite communication car for them to use. At this time, the ground troops of mercenaries entered the city and bombed with tanks. There was a fierce battle between the two sides.

Andrew and others will upload the recording quickly, but it will take a few minutes. At this moment, Russian helicopter gunships found them, and the video was about to be uploaded, but the helicopter gunships had locked them, and the photographer had to unplug the memory card to avoid danger. The helicopter immediately fired rockets, and the communication vehicle was instantly blown up. The helicopter gunship also found several other colleagues and immediately fired another one at them. The rocket directly hit the vehicle beside him, and two colleagues were instantly swallowed up by the fire. Seeing that the Russian helicopter was so arrogant, the team leader immediately set up a rocket launcher to aim at each other, and the rocket was accurately launched, and the helicopter crashed on the spot. The onlookers were ecstatic for no reason, celebrating the staged victory. Just as Andrew left, the building behind him was attacked by a large number of rockets, and the whole building was completely destroyed. The mercenaries' armored tanks also arrived here, and the city square was surrounded by them. The only remaining government troops and civilians helped each other, and the tanks slowly approached and finally stopped in front of them. The mercenary commander said, get out of here, there is enough killing here. After the video shot by Anders and others was exposed, it successfully attracted the attention of the international community. Finally, with the coordination of international parties, Georgia and Russia stopped the war, and the five-day fighting finally ended. Andrew's colleagues were also arranged to go to the hospital for treatment, and the film ended here.

The film The Five-Day War is based on real events, and tells the story of the war between Russia and Georgia for the control of South Ossetia in August 28 from the perspective of American journalists. This is an American war film, and its purpose is to discredit Russia.

The war lasted for five days, and Russian troops participated in the military operations, but South Ossetia volunteers were the main body of burning, killing and looting. Because it seems to the outside world that the Russian army has no will to do such a thing. However, in the face of the Georgian army, which is much weaker than itself, the Russian army's military action was not very successful. Action often fails because of the cooperation of various arms. This is something that Russia itself has to admit.

However, in the war, Georgia's allies did not participate in the aid, so condemnation is extremely pale and powerless in the face of actual military actions, and it is very clear that weak countries have no diplomacy.

This film takes the audience back to the corner that was not concerned by the world in the summer of 28 by documentary photography. As a film, there are not many commendable places, but the truth it reveals needs each of us to think. War is a politician's game, but it is a humanitarian disaster for ordinary people.
