Osama is a deeply powerful and meaningful motion picture. The plight of the film's protagonist (who risked her life whenever she stepped outdoors, literally) was very moving. It is very easy to sympathize with her. The story's conclusion is absolutely fantastic. Not to ruin anything, but it is dark, it is sad, and it packs a punch. All in all, Osama is a great foreign flick.
