Until He's Back (2023) Hamptons 2024


Deeply moving film about a father in Morocco who learns his son died trying to cross the Mediterranean into Spain. On the wrong side of the sea he desperately needs to try and bring his body home. The film is the story of how he manages to do that.

A lovely film that needs to be seen, it is cursed with a run time that is too long for most short collections and not long enough to be considered a feature. This is a great film you are going to need to search out.

I absolutely loved this bittersweet tale. Filling in the story of the migrant crisis that we need to be made aware of, the film hits us hard as the death of those yearning for a better life is revealed to leave chasms in the lives of those they left behind.

I was deeply moved.

Go see this film.
