2h 13m - Somali, Avusturya, Almanya, Fransa
THE SCALE OF JUSTICE
*Somali; Turkish and English Subtitles
*The Village Next to Paradise that depicts the life of the poor population under the drone attacks, made history as the first film from Somalia ever selected to the Cannes Film Festival. It draws a landscape reversing the Western prejudice toward Somalia. This minimalist, calm, slow and humanistic film focuses on the risks Marmagade takes to ensure the education of his son Cigaal. He generally makes a living by digging graves and occasionally drives trucks with unknown cargoes… Choice of amateur actors make the film even more authentic, and the cinematography reflects the village life and the nature in all their colours.
