In "To a Land Unknown," Palestinian-Danish documentarian Mahdi Fleifel makes a successful transition into fiction by drawing inspiration from "Midnight Cowboy" to tell the story of Palestinian cousins in limbo in Athens, Greece. The film, rich with masterful storytelling, explores themes of displacement, criminality, and the quest for a promised land, with nuanced performances and a taut script driving the narrative forward. As the characters navigate their circumstances and make difficult choices, the film delves into the complexities of humanity and exile, capturing the poignant struggles of individuals in search of belonging and hope.
