Set in 1916 during the Arab revolt, this Best Foreign Language nominee is a classic adventure told from the point of view of a scrappy, pint-sized hero: Theeb. When a British Army officer arrives at their isolated village searching for a specific well, Theeb’s brothers are compelled by Bedouin tradition to guide him on the long, perilous journey. The mischievous Theeb tags along, undeterred by the bands of Ottoman mercenaries and harsh desert terrain. D: Naji Abu Nowar, Jordan/UK, subtitled, 2014, 100m
