About pain one cannot say words. About war one cannot tell anything without risking to reinvent or make up stories. About war was written enough in the history books and those who lived it are not willing to relive the horror.

Christopher Nolan offers us a poem about Dunkirk, about that moment too little known by people of today. A poem about pain and love for humankind, about fear, terror, about youth and death, about those civilian "weekend sailors" who sailed to Dunkirk to save their children and bring them home, dead or alive.

A poem about countrymen as a huge family in time of need. A poem about war on land, on the sea, in the air. A poem about triumph and defeat, about the power of love over hate. Nolan and his crew created Art about war without words, only the blood, the fear in the eyes, the silent sense of duty.

Yes, a wonderful movie, real ART, like everything what Nolan creates.
