#FatimaProblems


Fatima (2015)

Directed by Philippe Faucon this film stars Soria Zeroual, Zita Hanrot and Kenza Noah Aiche. An Algerian woman living in France tries to raise her two teenage daughters.

I think this film does a really good job of exploring the troubles that immigrants face as they seek to thrive in a new community. What the film does well is explore the generational differences as well as the pressures from the immigrant's own community as well as the country they have moved to. Low key in style this film is also pretty well made.

4/5
