FILM:
Day Night Day Night
A newspaper story about a female Chechen suicide bomber inspired Russian-born filmmaker Julia Loktev's tense, unnerving story, which follows a teenage girl's preparations to blow herself up in Times Square. Shot in tight, confining close-ups, the film avoids analysis of character and motives, and focuses instead on the girl (Luisa Williams) as she receives final instructions, straps on a backpack of explosives, and arrives in New York City to fulfill her goal. Winner of the Prix Regards Jeune at the 2006 Cannes Film Festival.

I suppose I simply do not understand such a useless act as suicide bombing. Death and destruction for what reason? Would not living and striving to right whatever wrongs are perceived be the more intelligent path? That said, the film was much too long
