Cannes: In his debut feature, Iraqi filmmaker Hasan Hadi wisely prioritizes character and story, letting brutal dictatorship speak louder as backdrop.
"It is head and shoulders above some of those films I have seen there, but no matter how you find it, this is a true gem & a real discovery from Hasan Hadi. With the right distributor, it could turn out to be Iraq’s first nominee for an Oscar." @deadline.com
