Original Title:

Flying Blind

Superb performances and austere direction turn a potential melodrama about a middle-aged aerospace engineer falling for a younger Algerian into a fascinating treatise on kneejerk British attitudes to the complexities of Islam.

A tough, compelling thriller touching on race, prejudice and contemporary Britain. Not Blitz, in other words.
