"My Motherland, directed by Benoît Cohen, is a deeply moving cinematic work that explores with sensitivity and humanity the encounter between two diametrically opposed worlds. A forced cohabitation becomes the starting point for mutual transformation, as each learns to understand and accept the other.”— Les Fiches Cinema
