Critics Consensus: Transgressive in the best possible way, Wadjda presents a startlingly assured new voice from a corner of the globe where cinema has been all but silenced.

Emiliano Basile

Fortunately, Wadjda goes beyond the simple delineation of a quotidian drama about a foreign culture that's hard to understand and does so through the protagonist's hope and optimism. [Full review in Spanish]

Battleship Pretension

Josh Long

Films like these are insightful and useful instruments for change.

Wadjda builds a complex portrait of a place and people around a simple story.
