He went through so much as a child, but seemed happy in general. It was sad to see where Hannah found him and the film obviously skipped some really bad years. I'm so glad it ended on a positive note for him as he obviously got to a place to tell this story.
This movie touched many raw spots. The amount of refugees and " neighbors " in the world who have no where to go and the world is silent - fills me with horror.
The portrayal of the families who are the "other" who want what we all want and need - yet have forbidding fences with violence waiting.
The " teaching" of hate instead of acceptance and understanding- so easily targeting young minds is all too prevalent.,
Loved the child's acting and view of the world.

Very resilient child, but looked broken in the refugee camp.
I had to come back to add, the child actor is absolutely amazing.
