Review by ayhansalamci

The slowly rising tension between government supporters and opponents after the resignation of a president who had ruled the country for over 30 years and thousands of people who joined a group of revolutionary supporters who believed that the country would gradually become more prosperous is reflected very well. The bad situation the country was in got worse rather than better and the former president was assassinated 5 years after the uprisings. When you do a little research on the Middle East, including prehistory, you will first and foremost come across a reality where the balance of power is always changing and there is never unity and solidarity. Except this, you know a country including in civil war which two or more groups are involved is managed and monitored from a distance by two different great powers outside the country and the same situation is in Yemen. Don't watch without researching Ali Abdullah Saleh and the history of Yemen, albeit briefly. Obviously, I got quite tense at many points and felt like I was there. The harsh and merciless images of life shot by Kais and Sean who have interesting and good characters are definitely worth watching.
