Why watch the movie Limbo?
"'Limbo' is the type of movie that, under an acidic humor reminiscent of Wes Anderson or Jared Hess ('Napoleon Dynamite') productions, hides a powerful story. With a strong political context, about forced migration, the guilt and Beckettian absurdity of refugees waiting to receive asylum. The story follows a group of Syrian refugees on a remote Scottish island, including Omar (Amir El-Masry), a musician who carries his grandfather's oud from his native country. It's a tender story that tackles its themes from a non-conventional angle, making it refreshing, moving and even funny."
