      • With minimal dialogue, Theeb relies heavily on stark imagery to tell its tale of survival in a stark and arid environment, a boy's coming-of-age unlike anything anyone living in the Western world could imagine. It is almost hypnotic from beginning to end thanks to the stunning cinematography and the simple but compelling story.
