Review of Faraway

Faraway (2023)
8/10
From Munich to a Croatian island
12 August 2023
Faraway (2023) is a German movie that was directed by Vanessa Jopp. It stars Naomi Krauss Zeynep, a 40-something Croatian-Turkish woman who runs a restaurant in Munich. She realizes that her entire family--husband, father, daughter--take her for granted.

Zynep's mother has just died, and has left her a little house on a Croatian island. Zeynep leaves Germany and travels to the island. When she arrives, she discovers a Croatian man Josip (Goran Bogdan) living in her house. To no one's surprise--at least not to my surprise--there is a chemistry between them.

The plot moves forward as Zynep's family arrives to convince her to go home. To know what happens next, watch the movie!

Faraway has an anemic IMDb rating of 6.7. I thought that it was much better than that, and rated it 8.
