We didn't realise the movie was set in Iraq when we went. My girlfriend is from Iraq and cried her way through the movie. She liked the movie even though it bought back painful memories.
The movie sensitively tackles the issues of the young dying in their prime... and the perceived injustice of it all. It contrasts the feelings of the dead, the injured and the uninjured in a way that challenges our preconceptions.
It's hard not to be moved by this movie.
Atheists or agnostics seeking to understand Christianity better would benefit from seeing this film.
