Anybody seen this?
(The title of the copy I saw was the negative, so that's how it's staying in the thread title...)
Absolutely devastating portrayal of war, and this war, acted almost entirely by actual refugee kids. It's set on the Iraqi-Turkish border, and is beautifully shot and completely heart-rending.
The film producer I saw it with noted that it is almost impossible to shoot with non-professional kids; virtually all the cast fell into that category, yet the performances were completely convincing. Great, great film.
