Wonderful and a little unconventional story told through the eyes of a young Lebanese guy, living in the post war era. The absurdity of some of the scenes will be lost on non-Lebanese, and it was definitely lost on some of the reviewers here who didn't get it. This movie came out in 2006, the beginning of the decline after a few years of hope. The one day in the life of Tou captures a lot of emotions, a little bit of ridiculousness, and a lot of pent up disappointment and helplessness. Falafel and a little boy provide some salvation, even if on the fantastical side. This isn't for everyone, but I am glad it was made.
