Waltz with Bashir - David Polonsky's Visual Companion
The film's art director on the powerful visuals.
One of the most acclaimed films of the year, Ari Folman's animated drama Waltz With Bashir is a potent blend of haunting dreamscapes and harrowing memories of the early 1980s Lebanon war in which Folman fought as an Israeli soldier. Waltz's art director and illustrator David Polonsky was responsible for over 80% of the drawings that became the bedrock for the film's unique look, and gives RT an exclusive tour through a selection of the film's powerful images.
