Incendies

CriticsCritics: 86
AudienceAudience: 8.4

After their mother’s death, twin siblings receive a troubling request: find the father they believed was gone and a brother they never knew existed. Their search leads them into a war-scarred Middle Eastern country, where family history, violence, and enduring love emerge through a tense investigation spanning past and present.

My take

You’ll like this if you appreciate emotionally devastating mysteries, war dramas, and stories that unfold across timelines, especially if you enjoyed Prisoners or Arrival; Not for you if you prefer lighter, faster-paced viewing.
