I watched a mainly Arabic-language film yesterday.
Lemon Tree. It's about a woman who fights to save her lemon grove when the Palestinian Defence Minister moves in next door to her and orders it (her only source of income) be cut down to protect his security.
It was a pleasantly impartial and unsentimental jaunt.
I bet you've seen White Balloon. 45 minutes watching a small Iranian girl trying to get both a goldfish and her mum's money out of a drain? No thanks!
