Heart of Humanity

As we can see from the film that people were willing and able to unite as one nation, even though there were many diversities among the population, they were able to anwser country’s call when they are called upon, and willing to put its need before themselves. Like people say that no one wins in a war, that shows their understanding of the cause of the war, that is to fight for freedom, for their families, for their loved ones, for the people that struggled overseas, as well as for themselves.

There is no harder time for one to face than a war, one might have to face grievences, poverty in order to supply the necessities in a war. But it also unifies a country as a whole, as everyone fights for the same cause. War creates deaths, what it also does is make freedom for many to enjoy. No one in their right mind would go to a war, unless he knows it is for a cause that is greater than his life, that says a lot about the people that fight for its country, they fight because they want to search for that freedom that everyone admires. It is the source to a great nation.

In the film it showed that women were not just someone that cooked meals for their husbands. They had a greater mission, that is to gain respect and equality through a time like war in helping and reinforcing them with the necessities that were needed in a war. They showed their courage to those doubting men that they deserved the freedom that were only provinced to men.

One of the most memorable moments in the film to me was when Nannette went back into the building to rescue the baby, and was trapped in there when a group of German soldiers followed in there as well. One of the German soldiers tried to threat her of killing the baby if she did not do what he asked her to do. Nannette fought him till the last minute untill help arrived. It showed Nannette’s unwillingness to bend over to imperial power.
