"'The Other Side of Hope' draws a comedic parallel between the Syrian refugee crisis in Europe and the capitalist system of that continent. This mark of more serious matters handled with humor is common in the films of Finnish director Aki Kaurismaki - known for 'The Man Without a Past' which was nominated for an Oscar for Best Foreign Film. The production was very well received by critics and won the award for Best Direction at the Berlin Film Festival."
