"L'être de guerre" is a powerful and haunting song released in October 2023 by the French artist Gfree. Taken from his second album Limite, au-delà, les rêves, the track "L'être de guerre" ("The Being of War") delivers a dark, poetic reflection on the horrors of war — massacres, desolation, loss of loved ones, and the absurdity of endless conflict. The lyrics, written and composed by Gfree himself, are delivered with raw emotion, The visual realization, directed by Nicolas Leroy (Art of Nicolas Leroy), brings a striking and atmospheric cinematic dimension to the song’s grim yet beautiful poetry. A deeply moving piece that sits between dark folk, post-rock influences, and French song with a modern edge. Ideal for powerful sync placement in a war-themed film, series or documentary — introspective songwriting on conflict, loss and human absurdity, delivered with striking artistic direction.
