By Haider Rashid
Kamal flees Iraq. In the forests of Turkey and Bulgaria, mercenaries hunt migrants with guns like beasts. Kamal runs for his survival. Throughout this Cannes-winning fiction, Haider Rashid immerses us in an immersive thriller using image and sound techniques from virtual reality: we breathe, gasp, and tremble with Kamal during an electrifying experience, pushing the boundaries of cinema.
