a single woman and her 12 year old daughter ( whose name be not reveal ) lose their job when the taliban shut down the hospital they work at in afghanistan . need to survive and the woman decide to disguise her daughter a a boy by cut her hair off and put her in men clothe and and call her osama . osama get a job and but be soon take away by the taliban for military training with all the young boy in the village . this be beautifully film but extremely painful to watch . most of the violence be off screen and but there be still disturb imagery in this very realistic film . it be incredibly suspenseful watch the lead character go through her day and hop that her secret isn not find out . the lead actress and who be a panhandler before make this film and give an exceptional performance and the look of sheer terror and pain never leave her furrow browed face . osama be depress and bleak and a a movie about the taliban violent oppression of woman should be . my rating represent positive .
