Limbo
horizontal line

[Opens April 30 in theaters.] Ben Sharrock's poignant, melancholy, well-acted, down-to-Earth, occasionally humorous, 103-minute, 2020 dark comedy highlighted by wonderful cinematography in which a homesick, oud-playing Syrian refugee (Amir El-Masry), who is a talented musician, waits on a dreary, windswept island off of Scotland to get approval for political asylum with other migrant roommates, including a Freddie Mercury-loving Afghani (Vikash Bhai) and two Nigerian brothers (Kwabena Ansah and Ola Orebiyi), and passes the time attending an English language and cultural awareness class from two clueless teachers (Sidse Babett Knudsen and Kenneth Collard) with the hopes of eventually bringing his parents who are living in Turkey to Scotland.
