"With well crafted compositions this film positions one man's struggle for the freedom of his country and people within the frame of a couple relationship. Intimacy and world politics collide, in a way seldom seen. The film avoids cliché and instead allows for arguments of fascism, communism and modern right wing extremism to be fought over angrily eaten casserole. Though ending on a good note, we are left with the feeling of having shared some of the tragedies - political as well as personal - of our time."
