“Sand Castle”: Another Unrealistic War Drama
Overall, Sand Castle was another lack luster war drama that will eventually fade into the many similar war dramas I have seen throughout my life.
Beyond Her Lens
War photographer Alex returns to Prague after a long and difficult period spent in Iraq and is unable to come to terms with what she has experienced. Above all, she cannot get the image of an Iraqi boy named Ali out of her head, even though she does not want to admit to the trauma she has experienced. Will Alex return to her dangerous work, or will she decide to settle down to family life?
