| | Movie Haiku: | Somewhat didactic but ultimately very moving drama about how a small group of kids managed to survive the Sudanese Civil War, then years in a Kenyan refugee camp. Finally they arrive in the USA just before 9/11 where a new set of challenges awaits them. Kudos to Witherspoon for adding her star power in a supporting role as a Kansas City employment counselor. NOT YET SEEN BY RICH. |
