4- What do you think is
the importance of the real story told in this film?
When I saw the movie, I really got
touched by the story. This movie is showing us what happened in this country
between the 1977 and 1979. When you realice that the movie is a true story, you
get confuse and mind changed because this people were suffering just because
they have a different colour. I think that the importance of those kind of
movies is to learn about our mistakes. If we don’t change after making them, we
are not evolving as humans. That means that things, that are happening in
countries like Palestine or Afganistan, should not be happening now. In my
opinion, the real story told in this movie should be an example for nowadays
and the future.
