Behind the Lens

“Beautiful... deals delicately and artistically with the inhumanity and injustice of a war imposed on a small nation... allows us to witness a part of recent history that a lot of us haven’t even heard reported.

Cinema Without Borders

“A finely realized depiction of war and of the civilians who suffer the not always “collateral” consequences.
