Review of Amira & Sam

Amira & Sam (2014)
6/10
Amira & Sam
1 February 2015
Warning: Spoilers
Amira & Sam is the story of two unlikely love birds running away together. It shows you who Amira is: a strong and independent Muslim woman who is in total control, even when she is looked down on by her peers. It shows you who Sam is: an Iraq war veteran who is trying adjust to present-day America after serving multiple tours in Iraq.

It's Sean Mullin's directorial debut and it packs quite a punch for an indy picture. What stole the show for me was the 7-minute uncut scene in the middle of the film in which Amira and Sam share secrets, jokes, and kisses. It's in this scene that I fell in love with Amira & Sam. Take 90 short minutes and rent Amira & Sam on VOD or iTunes. Or take a trip to the silver screen and support this picture. You won't regret it.
