I am unfamiliar with anyone associated with the film. The leading actress was in 2005's Paradise Now which was a nominee, other than that they were all new to me. So a brother and sister [twins] are in a lawyers office as he is reading them, their mothers will. It is clear that there was a strain in the relationship between the mother and the two kids and it is revealed that they have a brother. Her final wishes are that the two go back to the Middle East, where she grew up, and find their brother and father. The daughter goes first as the brother is unwilling, and while she visits different places we are flashed back to the mothers life and the seriously tragic things she experienced.
It is hard to see from the poster, but that is her kneeling on the ground while a bus full of Muslims is burning in the background. She grew up with a lot of Christian and Muslim warfare around here and there are a number of scenes that will stick with me. This film is a little difficult to watch, and well deserving of its nomination.
Vote: 7/10
