Between Heaven and Earth

Really beautifully done. How the story is woven and how it tells so much in subtle ways. Very realistic and true to the daily life of families and married couples in Palestine. The filming and the scenery and the production are superb and world-class quality. This is the kind of film I would watch more than once. I highly recommend it.

Najjar skillfully portrays love's chaos within a history of personal and political turmoil. It was a very intimate journey with the couple as they tried for divorce, met with both continuous, subtle reminders of the power of love, as well as challenges to reigniting it while coming to terms with themselves. The moments of silence, for me, were the loudest, most intimate and engaging. Brilliant soundtrack too. Would recommend!

If there is a film that encompasses the Palestinian struggle in such a poetic sequence of story and images, it would be this. I highly recommend anyone trying to understand the nuanced history of the Palestinian struggle, while also being entertained by the main plot of a couple seeking divorced.

Najwa Najjar knoched this one straigh out of the ball park. No spoilers here, because this movie is an adventure that deserves to be enjoyed and savoured from beginning to end. I'll just say, from beginning to end, I had a silly smirk on my face and a swelling lump in my throat untill I gushed out into tears at the end ...There is something so captivating about the bitter-sweet combination of an anguished love story and the quest for one's origins, coupled with the heartbreakingly beautiful backdrops across Palestine's peotic landscape.

Whether you are a supporter of Palestine or not, it's worth watching. It's a great film simply because it's a great film.. great story, great actors, great cinematography, great music, seamless editing.. the fact that IS a Palestinian story is the cherry on top. This new brand of Palestinian films shedding light on the HUMANITY OF Palestine and its people through universally relatable stories is doing a bigger service to raising international awareness and empathy for the rights of persecuted Palestinians than decades of organised political efforts.

Hats off the all those involved in this wonderful film. Can't wait to watch what you do next.

Very interesting story, great choice of music throughout the film, very charismatic cast, loved the director's style of filming and the cinematography.
