★★★★

A tour de force! – Diego Semerene, Slant Magazine

Naturalistic, nicely paced and well played. A wryly-observed family drama. –
Allan Hunter, Screendaily

An intimate, well-played disquisition on what it means to be a Palestinian. –
Jay Weissberg, Variety

Annemarie Jacir’s strong suits are as a scriptwriter and as a director of actors. She crafts lively, believable dialogue throughout, shot through with a likable streak of earthy humor, providing nuanced characterizations for the Bakris to convincingly inhabit and bring to life. –Neil Young, Hollywood Reporter

Proof, if any further evidence was needed, that Jacir is the pre-eminent female filmmaker in the Arab world, whether she’s working as a director, producer, editor or screenwriter.
-Kaleem Aftab, Filmmaker Magazine

★★★★

Annemarie Jacir’s inner-city road movie sees this duo (winningly played by real-life father and son Mohammed and Saleh Bakri) spar over matters both serious and trivial. Even as Jacir ably explores faultiness of politics, culture and tradition, she delivers a wryly affectionate odd-couple comedy. -Simon Kinnear, Total Film
