Saw it this weekend and thought it was brilliant.

In case you're not familiar, it's about some Iraqi-Kurdish refugee children in a refugee camp on the Iraq-Turkey border. They spend their time collecting old land mines from the fields of the residents. (I guess left there after the Iran-Iraq war). Many of them are missing arms and legs.

This movie takes place on the eve of the American invasion into Iraq which serves to lift their spirits a little, but not nearly enough to overcome the hardships of their daily lives and the nightmare of past experiences.

It is a joint venture of French, Iranian and Iraqi movie companies. Not an uplifting movie but well worth seeing.
