The Foreign Son

2015 · 79 min Documentary

Answering the call of his homeland Algeria, there seems to be a path unfolding in front of him, and it is tortuous. Providence provides a child to guide him. The apparently pristine wilderness is heavy with the history of the land. Along a fine line between reality and fantasy, the past surfaces through archive footage. Strangely, the uncanny trip will lead the foreign son to connect with a landscape he hardly knows, and allow his intimate reunion with an estranged family.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The Foreign Son is an acquired taste at 0.0/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

Released in 2015, this film holds up just as well today. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
