Seen on 22-7-2009 - A Netflix dvd
Cast: Sarah Polley (Hannah), Tim Robbins (Josef)
Dir.: Isabel Coixet
An Eastern European war survivor, traumatized by her experiences in the war, is dumbstruck and turns mournful and taciturn for the rest of her life. But she slowly begins to warm up to Josef, her patient who was burn victim in an oil rig accident. Otherwise sad and silent, she reveals to him her horrifying story of rape and torture during the war. But soon she recedes into her shell and disappears to her work in a British factory, away from Josef, who after recovery seeks her out to bring cheer into her life.
This movie holds but cannot be rated highly for some reason.
