A film that reminded me of the acclaimed Insyriated (Film, 2017). The plot is largely similar. The civil war in Syria where there are always citizens who remain behind in their homes and refuse to leave for (hopefully) better places as refugees.

You get a strong insight into what the days look like. It's all quiet outside, except for a stray rocket. It is mainly a matter of waiting until the Syrian army reaches the part of the city and you just have to hope that they will leave you alone. The uncertainty and fear is widely present and is well depicted. Living without running water and electricity is not easy, but the family makes do.

Despite the fact that the film is just over an hour and a half, it still lags a bit here and there. A little too little momentum at times, but all in all it remains entertaining. The view of the destroyed city is impressive, as is the good acting.

An ideal film for young people to make them aware of war and everything related to it without having to be confronted with shelling and corpses.
