        A vivid and realistic Arab drama rarely equaled by anything here.

        A heart-wrenching story wonderfully written, directed and acted. Vivid and real. I can't say enough good things about it. It's woefully under rated by this unappreciative North American audience. The little children are warm and amusing and lend a certain happy grace to the small world they live in. Congratulations to everyone who participated in this masterpiece!
