I connected with the main character so well this became an intense experience for me. It is good to see a paranormal thriller set amongst the environs of a country at war, and in a place where lashes can be dished out for not wearing hijab's.
In the first part of the film it delivers a slice of life feel for the residents of another country with that documentary vibe, a real foreign film aspect (I'm in a western country) with regards to shot composition and editing.
On here some 'horror movie' lovers are crying and frothing at the bit because this movie does not contain bucket loads of violence and gore. What these pillocks don't appreciate is that film making need not slot into histories neat and concise film categories and thus we can mix elements of any known genres to result in many shades of grey. A bit of an open mind might assist you pallbearers of the strict genre to rise above your misery.
Now my objections are over, let me recommend this paranormal movie. It's well worth the ride :)
