전쟁이라는 살상 행위를 합리화하기 위해서는 도덕적 당위성이 필요하다. 이스라엘의 모든 남성과 여성은 만 18세가 되면 병역의무가 부과된다. 무력 동원의 명분을 얻기 위해 유대인으로서 핍박받은 역사, 중동의 지정학적 상황, ‘하나님의 의로움을 드러낸다’는 종교적 신앙까지 이용된다. 이 과정에서 의문을 품고, 정신적 고통에 괴로워하며, 종내 죽음에 이르는 수많은 젊은이들의 목소리는 외면된다. 병역 거부가 터부시되는 사회에서 군 복무 중 목숨을 끊은 외로운 아이들이 겪은 내적 갈등과 외적 압박을 섬세하게 묘사한다.

The 1967 'Six-Day' war ended with Israel's decisive victory; conquering Jerusalem, Gaza, Sinai and the West Bank. It is a war portrayed, to this day, as a righteous undertaking - a radiant emblem of Jewish pride. One week after the war, a group of young kibbutzniks, led by renowned author Amos Oz, recorded intimate conversations with soldiers returning from the battlefield. The recording revealed an honest look at the moment Israel turned from David to Goliath. The Israeli army censored the recordings, allowing the kibbutzniks to publish only a fragment of the conversations. 'Censored Voices' reveals the original recordings for the first time.
