In a remote, isolated Lebanese village surrounded by land mines, Muslims and Christians live together in peace. As civil strife starts to engulf the country around them, the women in the village try, by various means and to varying success, to keep their men in the dark by sabotaging the village radio, and then destroying the village TV.

Review

Andres Gomez

A nice drama-comedy. The idea is very good gut it's not well developed. The cast is also good but the fails in story are what makes the movie not to work completely.

You may have heard this popular lament: "If mothers ruled the world, there would be no war." What if someone took that maxim and created a movie from it? That's exactly what Nadine Labaki did here! It's hilarious, creative, tongue-in-cheek, contemporary to the current mid-east struggles, and touching. I loved her choices which create a crude, rudimentary atmosphere for the film. This is now my 3rd Labaki movie, and it's so easy to see why this Lebanese woman director is racking up awards in all the festivals (42 wins, 37 nominations). In this one, she lances "religionism". And rightly so - it's the root of nearly all wars.
