Why watch this film?
Our suggestions
A cattle herder and his family who reside in the dunes of Timbuktu find their quiet lives -- which are typically free of the Jihadists determined to control their faith -- abruptly disturbed.
"'Timbuktu' depicts the harsh reality of the Middle East, of cities controlled by extremist factions. Despite the violent context, the movie has beautiful and very poetic scenes! It is a portrait of a story that is still ongoing and we don't know where it will lead. The whole world suffers from terrorist attacks, imagine those who deal with this every day?"
