There are some really quite harsh reviews of this movie here on IMDB.
Take it for what it is... a lighthearted movie about dreams, grief, recovery, love, loss, paper planes - yes, I looked it up, it IS a thing! I loved the planes, the skill, the crafting, the amazing dedication to creating flight out of something so very basic and then doing it well... that was fun.
Some humor, some Aussie bush and friendship.
Don't look for more and if you are then don't bag the heck out of what is a great lighthearted little film that if you let it, will give you a feelgood feeling.

No matter what you believe about this situation, the louder than life cry in this real life horror, is that these are ordinary people keeping sheep, chickens and valuing their belongings, trying to send their little children to a safe school and possibly grow an olive tree or two.
They live on some of the worst terrain on Earth and don't complain, they just want a home.
When oppressors fill a living water well in with concrete and defile every living beings right to water and Nature itself, when they bulldoze homes and deprive people of the right to peace, quiet and community, they are not 'following the law' as the soldiers like to cite, because this behaviour is totally unlawful. At every level. Morally, spirtually, physically and societally and legally.
And history shows that nothing stands still. There is always backlash. This oppression is not recent. History shows it to have been going on for about the past 70 years.
It's about annihilation by attrition. Which is equated with barbarism and deeply dark most base of all human behaviour. No matter which 'side' you believe in. This is not conscionable.
Not easy to watch as you sit helpless and wondering. What next?
