There he delves into the delicate and complex culture of the refugee community, becoming enmeshed in the lives of a young mother and son and falling for a mysterious woman named Marie (Paula Beer)."By turns intimate and expansive, Transit is a thrilling, at times harrowing labyrinth of a movie." (Manohla Dargis, NYTimes)"What emerges in Transit is a fresco of displacement, of people on the run but stuck in place." (Michael Philips, Chicago Tribune)website: musicboxfilms.com/film/transit
