To a Land Unknown
A film by Mahdi Fleifel
w/ Angeliki Papoulia, Mahmoud Bakri, Manal Awad
Rated NR
1hr 46min
Chatila and Reda are saving to pay for fake passports to get out of Athens. But when Reda loses their hard-earned cash to his dangerous drug addiction, Chatila hatches an extreme plan, which involves them posing as smugglers and taking hostages in an effort to get him and his best friend out of their hopeless environment before it is too late.
Its exquisite photography and attempt to shift the tone into unexpected yet consequential corners make To a Land Unknown a fascinating cinematic work that succeeds in its task of making us care about these marginalized lives.

The film is about the hustle and the humanity lost in surviving in between trying to live a better life. It’s a beautiful meditation on friendship and a stark reminder of the tremendous lengths people will go to get out of a dire situation.
