A real breath of fresh air, an American indie-movie without all the indie-isms and directed with a remarkably well-developed style that isn't overbearing. They could have done a little more with the prejudice/alienation angle --as it is, it sometimes comes across dramatically rigged in a Von Trierian not-good way.

"The film's multilayered narrative (which employs a flashback within a flashback) and complementary use of organic transitions is nothing if not breathtaking." - Rob Humanick

John Heard deserved a best supporting actor nomination for his role as the conflicted and very human minister. Interesting cinematography and sound track that fit the story well. Well-cast, well-acted and well-directed film.

A very warm, beautiful, and enjoyable movie. It's easy to tell that a lot of heart went into it. With a perfect cast and emotional beats that are hit like tuning forks, Selim does a terrific job. It is its own film, and doesn't try to be anything besides a story, a very good one at that.
