“After Spring is superbly crafted, astute in many ways, beautifully filmed and orchestrated, yet shining most in how it handles the complex, emotionally-charged matter of a nation shattered by war. Grounded in its humanity, whatever light it sheds on the facts of this crisis ultimately has one effect: there’s no difference between the Syrians and us. An avalanche broke open in what once was perceived as a remote region. This film alters that perception — that avalanche was our backyard, and what happened there is changing our world.”
