I knocked out a longtime resident of my Watchlist this morning.
I highly recommend #Wadjda if you're a fan of those who tilt at windmills.

Wadjda (Haifaa al-Mansour, 2012). Touching drama. A 10-year-old girl in Saudi Arabia yearns to buy a bike so that she can ride with her friend Abdullah, but faces resistance to her free-spiritedness amid rigid gender roles. Subtly critical of how women are treated, it’s tender and absorbing. #Wadjda

Thanks Academy. Thank you for snubbing the exceptional, extraordinary and historic #Wadjda for the Foreign Language Oscar. Not edgy enough?
Now that you have Gravity'd and spent time with Captain Phillips...go meet a girl named #Wadjda - a movie and story you won't soon forget...
