Rebecca is one of the world's top war photographers. On assignment while photographing a female suicide bomber in Kabul, she gets too close, and ends up badly injured. Back home another bomb drops.

The choice seems obvious…

- " Anger and anguish visible in her eyes and etched in the lines of her face, Juliette Binoche delivers a terrific performance. " – Jason Best
