BEFORE SNOWFALL

September 24th, 2014

BEFORE SNOWFALL- 2014. Synopsis by Netflix. “When his sister flees her arranged marriage, young Siyar is expected to seek her out and bring her back to restore his family’s honor. Siyar’s pursuit takes him from Kurdistan to Istanbul — where he first begins to doubt his mission.”

9/23/14- A different type of “road trip” that shows how Siyar’s local community, working together with members abroad, tries to help him complete his mission. A great first few minutes, a little slow in the middle with a good last half hour. Well worth seeing. TRDB. At the Arab Film Festival at Jacob Burns Film Center.
