My Father, My Lord (2007) ****
One of the gems in the 2007 Tribeca Film Festival, "My Father, My Lord" appears to be a very simple story. The characters and drama are not meant to get complicated in this story, but the power this movie has yielded, partly through its music, is simply amazing.
Simplicity is just a word that may underrrate this movie. Behind simplicity lies rigid ancient religious traditions that leave no room for people to make their own interpretations. "My Father, My Lord" is like a short novel that you would feel heavily struck after reading it. Despite bitter and sad emotions, you may find yourself speechless sitting in the darkness when the movie is over.
