Vodka Lemon

An absurd film by the Iraqi Kurdish director Hiner Saleem that's made for the Western audience who get their formula foreign film with remote exotic location, wacky characters and story. Nothing makes much sense or is credible. The film is dour to be a fable and too contrived to be taken seriously. However it does have some stunning images and some funny moments but what it needed is sincerity which it lacks. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
