It's admirable in its restraint, gracefully swerving away from the most overwrought clichés in its path. At the same time, it's hard not to wish it would let itself fly a bit freer.

The film might not be story-rich or revolutionary, but it's humane and empathetic.

Coming of age story is about more than just friends - though that is a huge part of it. The film also deals with cultural differences.

Really amazing, moving film with very real performances, a complicated story set in the Middle East. Really shows what an independent film can do.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars
