Bang,bang,you're dead.No,really dead.A group of twelve year old kids play war in a forest but the audience views the action through their eyes.They fire real machine guns,hear mortars exploding around them,and dodge bloody shrapnel from grenades.I Declare War is a movie for young and adult audiences alike,featuring twelve to thirteen year old actors in the tradition of Stand By Me.With overtones of Lord of the Flies,I Declare War is a parable for not only events broadcast nightly on newscasts throughout the world,but a chilling depiction of the capacity for youth and man to take charge and to win at all costs.
