A great international film that will impress you for various reasons – The story, the politics it talks about and great performances. A Syrian refugee in Lebanon wants to get to Belgium to meet his girlfriend. He decides to sell the back of his body for artwork by a tattoo artist. What happens to him after that forms the interesting plot. There are several interesting twists and tensed moments. The ending is very good. I was expecting a serious slow film but the film while talking about the plight of a refugee also manages to keep you engaged. I would prefer this film to film to with the academy award for best international film (though Another Round stands a better chance).
