1,000 Times Good Night (2013, Erik Poppe) 

Juliet Binoshe performance has the gift of being able to invent a style for the film that draws the particular attention of the critics to its narrative. We can sympathize with her and understand her commitments on both sides, her profession and her family. The crises point arrives when she has to choose between two different sides of her life. The impossibility of reconciliation between these two brings the crisis to its peak. Rebecca tries to heighten her daughter's understanding of political tensions in the world. But there is a sign of optimism in the film when her daughter finally tries to understand her mother in the class assignment by referring to her mom's photographs in Africa. Rebecca's anxiety on the future of the survival of next generations and their political awareness is demonstrated in her role as an observer and journalist at the end of the film. The question of realistic accuracy and precision of photos taken in political turmoil could have been another important aspect of the film that is not structured convincingly.
