A young woman surrounded by war and death attempts to find happiness amongst the ashes in director Rosa Vergés' affecting tale of one woman's undying passion for life. Despite the destruction that rains down around her, Iris remains unwaveringly hopeful about the future. When happiness does finally come in to her life, the beauty that it brings offers hope for the future and a reason to carry on amidst all the strife. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
