I expected almost nothing, and I got such a charge of emotions that I couldn't help but punish this film with five stars. Yomeddine tells a poignant story in which a man disfigured by leprosy travels with his 10-year-old friend across the scorching landscape of Egypt in search of the family who abandoned him as a child. Along the way, they experience many distressing moments, but they manage to escape from each mess with a good deal of luck until they finally reach their desired destination, or rather, their epiphany. Interestingly, this is not an outright depressing film, there are also some funny passages, often accompanied by the purest expressions of humanity. During the story I occasionally cried, which then turned into a relieved sigh at some humorous situation. The icing on the cake for me was the very pleasant music that accompanied the central pair's travails, and the very nicely punctuated ending.
