Movie #1514 ........................."Watu Wote/All of Us"

Movie #1514 "Watu Wote/All of Us" was another live action nominated film for oscars 2018, and I thought it was very well done and what a timely message --- perhaps the most topical of all of the entries....... it concerns a christian on a muslim bus,  and she hides her anger because of her past experiences .  When the bus is attacked by a militant muslim group asking for the christians on the bus, the movie becomes intense until the end --- it is well done, the acting is strong, and you will remember it for a long time.  I would give it 4 stars out of 5.
