London River

Brenda Blethyn after of Secrets and Lies Mike Leigh has perhaps become one of Britain's most popular actresses and able to pass through various roles with seeming nonchalance and descends into a role and in a story that might lead to rhetorical traps are unavoidable, but we can say that the story represented by the director Bouchareb thanks to the simplicity and austerity of the dialogues, which are the small gestures and looks to define the story, shows how two cultures can come together in a difficult and dramatic as that of the terrorist attacks of 2005 in London, already so far yet so close in memory of our fears.
The apparent distance of the cultural and physical geography of the characters are filled by joint research of missing children, alleged victims of these attacks, which occurred precisely in a multi-ethnic city like London, where generations of immigrants are already taking place and this time makes it even more inexplicable that the negative outcome they have had up to raise doubts also the male lead on the human nature of a child ever known, because at an early age and left a mother like any mother, rightly, feels compelled to know where her daughter might be.
Love is definitely the glue that overcomes the differences and also the pain of loss, is what can unite and help understand and perhaps understand, though not always look or seem so easy, as this film wants to show us, but after all it is right also to hope and think that we can overcome with a little 'common sense and intelligence prejudices that appear today caricatures with which we still face today, for our ignorance more or less innocent.
