I saw this film recently at the 2024 RiverRun International Film Festival in Winston-Salem, NC. It is a profoundly moving story of a child finding his "voice" (in the sense of being able to communicate authentically) and his value as a human being in the world. Viewers also learn about his traumas as a refugee child and the process and challenges of staying in the United Kingdom as a refugee, but I would say the main emphasis is Lawand's journey to self-expression and finding his place in the world, spiritually as much as mechanically. I really can't recommend it highly enough. I would especially recommend it to anyone who has ever struggled to communicate in any way.
