    “ This compelling evocation of the clash between modern individual rights and traditional tribal obligations reels you in from the start with its portrayal of a family whose deep love is palpable. We are rooting for them to somehow find a compromise that will satisfy the larger community while preserving their close familial bonds. But even the strong-willed, fiercely intelligent Baaba can only slow the progress of the tragedy rushing toward them. ”
