A beautiful and at times harsh and funny movie proving that you can still make a simple and honest story without the hollywood embelishments forced on us by the mainstream movie industry. The director has a gift rare these days.
This movie should be mandatory viewing for all those making political decisions on the lives of the kurdish and arabic people.
