So, 'Running on Sand' is this intriguing blend of comedy and drama that really dives into the life of Aumari, an Eritrean refugee in Israel. The story kicks off with this desperate attempt to escape deportation, which spirals into a case of mistaken identity. The pacing feels deliberately uneven, mirroring Aumari's chaotic journey. There's a certain rawness in the performances that brings the characters to life, especially the way Aumari navigates his new reality, grappling with themes of identity and belonging. The practical effects are minimal but effective, adding to the film's grounded atmosphere. It’s this mix of humor and poignant moments that gives it an edge, making it stand out from typical refugee narratives.
