Title: IN A BETTER WORLD
Review: Remarkable performances by Mikael Persbrandt, his fellow adult actors, and the two young boys who must carry a substantial portion of the story. I can't remember the last time I've seen a "small" film that so powerfully weaves together the consequences of violence in both global and intimate circumstances, or that offers quite as many thoughtful reflections on the challenges of parenting in a violent world. My first thought after watching IN A BETTER WORLD was that fathers, especially, should watch and discuss this film with their teenage sons, and I can easily imagine a dozen ways to make good use this film in the classroom.
