Twice Born – Was vom Leben übrig bleibt (2012)

Twice Born – Was vom Leben übrig bleibt: Directed by Sergio Castellitto. With Penélope Cruz, Emile Hirsch, Adnan Haskovic, Saadet Aksoy. A mother brings her teenage son to Sarajevo, where his father died in the Bosnian conflict years ago.

“As I liked a lot the last movie directed by Castellitto and with Penelope Cruz based on a book by Margaret Mazzantini, I was sure I would like this one, even if I know the story would not be an easy one and quite a tragic one.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI absolutely adored the performance of Emile Hirsch, wonderful actor, absolutely great in the role he had her, wish there would be more movies with him. Cruz is also fantastic. And, as as someone very interested in the Bosnain war, and who wishes to visit Sarajevo so much, it was also interesting that the story was settled there, in a war forgotten by the world.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe whole story can be at some point difficult to understand, but this movie is absolutely worth to be seen.”
