Eleven Days

Excellent story on the journey of a young man to fulfill his duty to his family. I thought the beginning was a little rushed to set the stage for the young man's journey, but after viewing a second time decided that it was necessary to set the arc of that character and for character development through interaction with other elements of his journey (other characters, different cultures, various levels of prejudice, learning how to trust, forming bonds and friendship, developing a steely determination).

There were two very nicely intertwined journeys in the story, that of the young man and of his older brother who signed up in the military for reasons of vengeance. The crew definitely pulled it off well, bringing both story arcs of the brothers to a touching conclusion. Cinematography was stunning, the notable ones for me being the vast desolate desert and the beaches at the end.

Special mention needs to be given to Jit Singh's talent for conveying emotions very effectively through body language and facial expression. He really pulls you in and makes you part of his journey from start to end.

Wow, what a lovely film this is! Such wonderful cinematography and a beautiful, well done story. Really great!

Eleven Days is a coming of age story in the midst of racism, violence and discrimination. You will be vested in the story from the first few scenes scenes. Two thumps up for me.

Eleven Days was truly a dramtic indie film. This film teaches us about the love and bound between a father and his sons and what lenghts one of them would go to to keep and honor the traditions of their faith. Director Jaginder Singh did a great job getting the best performanes out of his actors and crew. The music, editing, and cinematography were all on point.

Eleven Days is one of the better coming of age films I've seen in a while. Normally these films aren't primarily meant for adults, so I don't always chose to watch them, but Eleven Days brought more to the genre. The film dealt with some really interesting issues and showcased people, cultures, and locations that deserve more time on screen. A Sikh family having to deal with the impact of racism is what gets this film going, giving it real-world relevance and import. Much of the film then follows a young boy urgently searching for his brother across the Australian outback, and it's not often that a young actor is up to the task like Jit Singh is here. Lastly, I just want to note that the cinematography and beautiful Australian landscapes were quite gorgeous. Eleven Days is definitely worth a watch if you're looking for a quality family film.
