Flee (MOD) (DVD Movie)

FLEE tells the story of Amin Nawabi as he grapples with a painful secret he has kept hidden for 20 years, one that threatens to derail the life he has built for himself and his soon to be husband. Recounted mostly through animation to director Jonas Poher Rasmussen, he tells for the first time the story of his extraordinary journey as a child refugee from Afghanistan.

Not long after he arrived in Denmark from Afghanistan as an unaccompanied minor, Amin made a fast friend of fellow teen Jonas Poher Rasmussen. Twenty years later, as an established academic and about to marry his long-term boyfriend, Amin opened up to documentarian Rasmussen regarding the family's flight from Kabul he never spoke about-and the filmmaker relayed his story via animation for a stunning and remarkable effort. 83 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack Danish; Subtitles English. In Danish with English subtitles.

In January 1989, in a flash Eileen Franklin recalled being eight years old and witnessing the rape and murder of her best friend, Susan Nason. She also remembered the identity of the murderer -- it was Eileen's own father, George Franklin. The ensuing trial was the first criminal case based on a repressed memory, and it raised questions and issues that continue to challenge the reliability of memory and of criminal testimony to this day
