True story?
Is this a real-life story?
I read this from the film's official website:
"?By the way, it?s a true-to-life ending that I first read about in the newspaper,? Mr. Abu-Assad said of the conclusion to the two films. ?I think that any filmmaker who will read this in the newspaper will immediately think, ?Oh this is good for a movie.??"
