Performances are strong and characters are complex: Hami is clearly keen to avoid stereotype.

For My Country is a story of pain and frustration... that eschews bold statements, easy answers, and predictable scenarios. [Full review in Spanish]

For My Country is too many things at once... individually, all themes are well treated but their connective tissue lacks splendor. [Full review in Spanish]
