Jonathan Foreman New York Post Its primary interest doesn't lie in its storytelling but in its sociology -- in the window it opens onto a Muslim Middle Eastern society in transition. Sep 28, 2001 Full Review Bilge Ebiri Citysearch Alternately tedious and compelling. Sep 28, 2001 Full Review Stephen Holden New York Times Its evocation of a traditional society wracked with unease conveys a deep, lingering sadness and sense of frustration.
