About Among the Almond Trees
Maysan and Iyad, a Syrian couple, work at a Breton fish auction and with their daughter seem to constitute a happy family. They have just been informed their residence permits have been approved. But then Iyad asks a question his wife wishes she hadn't heard. Great acting in this dissection of a marriage.
Directed by Marie Le Floc'h, Among the Almond Trees leans on a strong ensemble — Masa Zaher, Amer Al-Hamoud, Myriem Akheddiou — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2019.
