Flash Drive

Wow , this film seems to be under an attack. Look at the group of people who have gathered and decided to give it a 1. Seriously, this film is good... and such attacks are what happens when the world lets human rights to be politicized & militants rate movies.

Well forgetting about politics, this is how the film is: What makes one to flee their country? How is it possible to reach such a decision? The story of re-creating one's life, and the horrors of the Syrian region told in an engaging ( if we can say that about war) and pulsing story. It definitely comes down to judging you own values and beliefs and the film does that brilliantly... slowly we see the heroes build and test their value system even if they were not fully aware before.

The film has awards from Cinemed Montpelliere Film Festival in France, Sedona International Film Festival in the US and New York Independent Cinema Awards, US.

Flashdrive is a dramatic adventure story which keeps you engaged. It was well worth my time! The story uses real events as a springboard. Syrian war is told extensively and honestly in the film (especially true for the first phases of war). I think Flashdrive as a movie is a key to understand what has been happening there. One wonders why no one has done this before, or if they did why we never heard of it, when this war has been either the cause of or under the effect of so much of world affairs in these past years.
