4.0 out of 5 stars "Our Past Is Sad..., Our Present Is Tragic..., Luckily We Have No Future" ~ Ode To Iraq, July 5, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Kilometre Zero (DVD)
Note: French with English subtitles.

Released in '05 `Kilometre Zero' is a slow moving but darkly fascinating look into the cultural divide and national uncertainty pervading Iraq just prior to the fall of the Sadam Husein regime and the occupation of Bagdad.

Synopsis: The storyline centers around Ako (Nazmi Kirik) a desperate young Kurdish husband and father who dreams of escaping his homeland with his wife Selma (Elle model Belcim Bilgin) and infant son to someplace far away from the violence, death and hopelessness that has enveloped his country. When he is forced into the military and sent to the front line he waits for his chance to escape and his chance comes with the death of another soldier. He is assigned to escort the body back to the deceased mans family with the help of an Arab taxi driver. It's during their long drive that Ako makes his quest for freedom a reality.

Critique: While this film is rather lacking in entertainment value it does carry a powerful message in realms of human rights and politics. It also offers an insight glimpse of the deeply embedded hatred existing between Arabs and Kurds leading the audience to wonder if any real solution for peace will ever come to fruitition.

Definitely not a film for everyone but if you're into World Cinema and Middle East affairs you should give this one your time and attention.
