“Limbo” (UK, drama/comedy, 104 min., rated R for language) On a remote Scottish island, group of refugees wait for results of their asylum claims. The film’s focus is the deadpan Omar, a young Syrian musician bequeathed his grandfather’s oud, an instrument he refuses to play while waiting to hear his fate. “Most of the films we’ve seen about the migrant and refugee situation in Europe in recent years are gritty, often heartbreaking dramas and documentaries. ‘Limbo,’ written and directed by a ferociously talented filmmaker, Ben Sharrock, takes an insinuating, poetic and often wryly funny approach. And it’s both heartbreaking and heartlifting.” – New York Times
