As someone who has not experienced war first hand, I have only eye witness accounts to convince me that it is a dreadful and perplexing quagmire. The worst mankind has to offer. From the same eye witness accounts, I also know that threads of hope and mercy are strung even in the midst of terrible circumstances. In this animation, I join The Polyphonic Spree, Lennon, Ono and countless others who have suggested that we are better off together than alone. Even if it is idealistic to suppose that we can keep dreaming together about peace, I'm not willing to give it up." --- Gala Bent (animator/director) (Many thanks to Tim and Julie et al, and Ben and Teal and Zack)
