Shot on digital video with non-professional actors who virtually lived out the events of the film its compelling sense of reality brought Winterbottom numerous awards including a Golden Bear and a BAFTA for best film not in the English language. The film is based on the true story of a British reporter Michael Nicholson who spirited a young orphan girl out of the war zone to safety in Britain. Written by Winterbottom and Laurence Coriat the film was shot a few weeks at a time over a five-year period from 2007-2012 to reflect the protagonist's time in prison and achieve an authentic aging process.
