Presents a mildy harrowing look into a disturbed anarchistic society, so close to peace, where simple things are made infinitely complicated by screwy mindsets and stupid conflicts. 'Laila's Birthday' is a smart, interesting, and very frustrating anti-anti-etablishment movie. "We just want to live." The ending is a little light, but I liked it.
