The film won the Golden Bear at the 53rd Berlin Film Festival in 2003.
The film tells the story of the smuggling of Afghan refugees to the UK in the form of a documentary. The male protagonist is an Afghan teenager living in a refugee camp in Pakistan, and his family plans to let him live in London, England. So the family handed over the money to the smugglers and asked them to help the hero and another countryman go to London. So the two began their journey, and after a while, they left Pakistan and came to Iran. But the two were soon discovered by Iranian authorities, and they were quickly sent back. After returning home, the two set off again, this time successfully arriving in Tehran, Iran. After staying for a few days, they came to the Turkish border and risked their lives to cross the snow-capped mountains to reach Turkey. In Turkey, the two met a family of three and played for a few days. Afterwards, they were loaded into containers as cargo and shipped to ships for long-distance voyages. On the way, many people in the container died, and only the hero came to Trieste, Italy alive. Two weeks later, after stealing someone's money in France, the hero arrives in Sangat and meets another stowaways. In the end, the hero and the stowaways came to England under the lorry. A few days later, the actor who was washing dishes in the restaurant reported safety to the family.
There's not much to write about this movie. It just reflects a reality, that is, the thrilling and arduous process of stowaways, telling the audience that the world still has such a cruel side, that's all. Others, everything is in the film screen, it is useless to say more.
As for the male protagonist, the film shows his tenacious survivability in difficult circumstances. The male protagonist has perseverance, bravery, perseverance, and is smart, quick-witted, and so on. To put it simply, he has many excellent qualities that ordinary people do not have. Such a person may be unique in the eyes of others, but I find it very ordinary. Because this is created by the living environment of the male protagonist, if we also live in the same harsh environment, we will be extremely strong and will have tenacious perseverance. Therefore, human ability is infinite, it only depends on whether it can be stimulated.
There is no skill in filming, it is completely filmed in a documentary style, but the story is written. However, looking at the desolate and barren lands of Pakistan, Iran, and Turkey in the film, I really feel sad for the people living in these countries - with poor natural resources and harsh living conditions, can their lives not be miserable? Of course they yearn for a better life! These countries are described as "poor mountains and bad waters", which is the most appropriate! This, however, excludes oil from Iran and Turkey.
The actors in this film need not say much, they just perform in their true colors.
in conclusion. This is a good movie in the eyes of Westerners, but in my eyes it is mediocre. Because the smuggling process of stowaways must be extremely difficult, you can think of it without making a movie, otherwise it would not be called "smuggling".
