Jane an I saw this movie today at the Four Arts:
Captain Abu Raed, an aging airport janitor, is mistaken to be an airline pilot by a group of children in his poor neighborhood who beg him to share stories of the world outside of Amman, Jordan. It was filmed in Amman in Arabic language with English subtitles. I usually have trouble with subtitles but this time it was fairly easy for me. I found the story touching and engaging but the direction and editing disappointing. I'm glad we saw it. Others less critical will enjoy it more.
