It's unusual to see people in a war movie who have lives and not just guns. These has heart and purpose. There was too much violence but there images that are heart breaking. My husband made me watch it because he knew how strongly I felt about that awful situation. The woman's performance was particularly compelling. It must be difficult to be a woman in a society so skewed as that area of the world is and she did a wonderful job making us experience it. Also the character of Massood; it's clear he was based on the real life individual whose life was cut short, and the sensitivity the actor brought to him echoes the loss of a man who was leader in a time of terrible crisis.
