CGiii Comment

It certainly takes its time...but, it is a powerful film.

There's enough content for this to become a fully fledged feature...so many conflicts, not enough time!

The(ir) Blurb...

The sudden discovery of his son's secret turns Ibrahim's traditional world upside down. Fraught with emotional conflict he takes Ismail on a fateful trip. Inspired by the biblical story of Prophet Abraham, father of all patriarchs, and his son Ismail set in present-day Cyprus, unraveling the conservative facade of the society.
