| In This World |
Prolific UK director, Michael Winterbottom (
Wonderland,
Welcome to Sarajevo), strikes a fine balance between the fictional and documentary forms in his latest outing - a film that collected the Golden Bear at the Berlin Film Festival.
In This World tells the intimate story of two Afghani cousins who place their fates in the hands of people smugglers and travel the 'Old Silk Road' to a precarious future in London.
Filmed on location in Europe and the Middle East, Winterbottom explores the broader moral and social contexts behind the slogans of politicians and the media.
