Audience Member Beautiful scenes that show insight into children's lives, even in another, very different culture. The originality of the idea and mission merit credit, but the slow pace of the events unfolding may not appeal to some viewers. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member This documentary simply reminds me why I fell in love films/movies/cinema. And goes to show a different face of Iraq that isn't an international story, but could quite easily be universal story. My rating might be slightly biased because I the subject matter is close to me but anyone who has connected to films/movies/cinema can see the beauty of this documentary.
