Description

Shot in scintillating black and white, this drama is a delightful exploration of the immigrant experience for Afghani girl Donya (a superb Anaita Wali Zada). A former US army translator, she has fled to Fremont, California, in the wake of the Taliban?s return to power in her homeland. Life is safe but lonely and dull, despite Fremont?s sizeable Afghan community, so leading her to make gentle but mildly risky moves, including the posting of her own messages, such as ?desperate for a dream? along with her name and number, inside the fortune cookies she has helped to make in the Chinese factory where she works. ?Sweet and sneakily powerful,? says Variety magazine.
