Woven

I had the privilege of seeing Woven at the LA Film Festival and left in AWE! What an incredibly touching movie filled with beautiful culture, complex characters and deep layers. At a time when the world can feel painfully divided, it's refreshing to know that a Christian and Muslim Director came together to create such a poignant film that left me inspired. There were so many beautiful messages WOVEN into the film that transcend ethnicity and religion. I left encouraged to listen to my inner voice, speak my truth and be present with my children. The film showed me that healing happens through forgiveness and connects us as human beings. We are all Woven. We are all one. It's a MUST SEE!!!

I don't even know where to start. What an extraordinary movie with extraordinary cast. What started as a drama showcasing both the American and Ethiopian culture in the midst of one of the worlds modern states NY, to leaving me on the edge of my seat.. urging to see what next-wowww! What a script, what an incredible cast and crew. And Salome- the main character!!! PURE QUEEN! Directing and playing a major role is not for everyone- but you did that!!!! Ammmazinggg! The way the story is developed and shows how each and everyone of us are linked to each other in ways we can never imagine was also mind blowing.

It also stimulate the brain to think outside the box on how life is and what truly is important by showing us how things are bound to take a significant shift with a fraction of a second unexpectedly. It shows us what true love is. Shows us the power of forgiveness and how similar we are though there is a significance difference in the culture we are celebrate.

This movie is mush watch for all.

Well, this is an ethiopean in new york story, with the entangelments of direct opposite cultures, rites and traditiones. its about love, lost love,aspiring love, life,death,ad/hd,coptic church,catholic church, and lot of troubles on expectations and lack of understanding in life in general

it is a home made product, but , especially the second half has some real qualities. i shall admit that the film wowed me in for a while, and did recognise some of the issues that the main actors went through. if you like culture crash movies this easy piece is good, though i will not award higher than 4.

Great movie. Really emotional. Hits you in all the right spots tell of pain, loss, forgiveness and is sure to be an unforgettable film for any viewer.

It is thrilling to see our culture beautifully highlighted all throughout this film. It is truly an honor to see my people and culture displayed accurately in Woven and I really hope to see more films like this in the near future. The movie Woven showcases the life of an Ethiopian born women, Elenie Tariku, who hopes to keep her roots alive while on the path of fulfilling her dreams. The film Woven is a must-see and will literally have you at the edge of your seat.
