REVIEW
Although it could be considered a “coming of age” type movie, it seems more like a travelogue. As the two principal characters make their way to Algeria, we get to see the Andalusian part of Southern Spain and Morocco. The dialog is kept to a minimum, replaced in part by music of various sorts. But the whole thing at two hours is far too long. Unless you are a big fan of Algerian music, the fifteen minutes devoted solely to one dance sequence near the end is enough to make you get up and leave.
CLASSIFICATION
for some sexual content, brief nudity, mild language and some drug references.
