Amy Taubin Sight & Sound The female protagonist, an economically privileged young woman turned workers'-rights organiser and something of an animal activist, makes the film both satisfying and uncommon. Aug 29, 2017 Full Review Geoffrey Macnab Independent (UK) A hyperbolic tone, some dire over-acting and much verbose political debate made this a leaden trudge, resembling a rendezvous between Ken Loach and Barbara Cartland on the banks of the Nile. May 23, 2012 Full Review Guy Lodge HitFix With the level of its visual storytelling and rhetorical content hovering perilously around the daytime-TV level, Cannes selectors clearly had their diplomat hats on when admitting this one into Competition. May 21, 2012 Full Review Yasmin Shehab Cairo360 The film requires a lot of perseverance to sit through and with very little pay off at the end Rated: 1.5/5 Sep 28, 2017 Full Review Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.Com One of the weakest films in 2012 Cannes Fest, this Egyptian political melodrama about the 2011 uprise is misconceived and poorly executed. Rated: C Aug 20, 2012 Full Review Jon Frosch France24 A heavy-handed, visually insipid take on the Arab Spring and its impact on various segments of Egyptian society.
