    In the Land of Brothers (2024) Review: Belonging, Deferred

    In the Land of Brothers is a quiet, affecting drama about an Afghan refugee family trying to build a life in Iran over decades, restrained almost to a fault.

    Mostly yes. It is a humane, carefully observed refugee drama with strong performances, best for patient viewers who value restraint over plot.
