It's a well done story of small insights to self and other cultures. My one complaint is lack of resolution for any of the characters. The story doesn't seem to end in any character really using what he/she learned to improve lives. Close this ReviewWAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

This movie is slow but it is meant to be subtle. I really liked Dina's character. Not for someone who does not typically watch foreign films. WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

Otherwise, we really enjoyed the story and the actors. Obviously not made to Hollywood "Blockbuster" standards or budget,, but enjoyable to watch and not too long.
Highly recommended. Close this ReviewWAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

Read MoreOK, so I don't usually write reviews but I'm getting pretty chapped when I order a movie and it turns out it's not an English language film. Non-English films are OK if you know going in that's what you're getting, but many (most) are not identified clearly in the description or details that you'll have to watch with subtitles if you want to know what's going on. Some movies are worth the effort; this one wasn't, IMHO. Close this ReviewWAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes
