ABOUT A GIRL
The New Indian Express Hyderabad
|April 15, 2026
WINNER of the jury award for direction and the audience award, Itab Azzam and Jack MacInnes'
One in a Million was one of the three films in the World Documentary Competition section of Sundance this year (Birds of War and Everybody to Kenmure Street being the other two) that were focused on migrants, showing different facets of the refugee experience.A UK production, the German and Arabic film can well be called Azzam and MacInnes' Boyhood (2014). However, unlike Richard Linklater's much-celebrated coming-of-age epic, the Sundance winner is about a girl. It's not an improvisational piece of fiction but an authentic record of her life journey.
What it shares with the 2014 film is the idea of capturing the passage of time in the life of its protagonist, how things alter with the change in circumstances, where it takes the person and what it makes of them.
