Late For My Mother's Funeral (2013)
Former Portland director Penny Allen’s (PROPERTY, PAYDIRT) new film is the intimate, turbulent portrait of a French-Algerian-Moroccan family residing in Algeria and adrift following the death of their mother, Zineb, a notorious smuggler of gold and jewels. Filmed over the course of three years, the film finds its own space between documentary and fiction as the family’s story brings to life the complexities of cross-border identities, the influence of political context on individual lives, and the importance of the mother figure in Arab/Islamic cultures

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
