Former Australian soldier, Mike Wheeler, returns to Afghanistan, seeking redemption from the family of a civilian man he killed during the war.
Leave your thoughts about Jirga.
| Cinema ScopeMichael SicinskiActually shot in Pakistan and Afghanistan, with some performers who themselves are former Taliban, there is an undeniable power to Jirga... But a cursory step back reminds us that Jirga would not pass muster in the court of basic plausibility. |
| Sydney Morning HeraldPaul ByrnesIt's a fine film, even without the backstory. Gilmour shows a real empathy with the Afghani non-actors. Their character and traditions are part of the subject, and both are surprising. |
| The Age (Australia)Karl QuinnThe strain of making it sometimes shows, but [Jirga] is a quite remarkable piece of work all the same. |
| Film InquiryAlex LinesIt might not be as polished or meticulous as its contemporaries, but its motives, and the audacious effort to bring them to life, should be congratulated - the eventual DVD release is going to have one hell of a behind-the-scenes featurette. |
| Hollywood ReporterHarry WindsorThe filmmaking could most charitably be described as artless, with a medley of shaky thousand-pixel close-ups providing a sense of detail that doesn't quite extend to the script. |
| GuardianLuke BuckmasterIts very existence seems to constitute an act of compassion. |
| Flicks.com.auBlake HowardJirga is a mesmerising Afghanistan-set drama exploring the consequences of war... |
| The GateAndrew ParkerUnafraid to let large portions of his brief, yet powerful film play out without much dialogue, Gilmour's film is one of the most bracingly original takes on the mental tolls caused by morally ambiguous wars. |
| VarietyEddie CockrellUnfortunately cryptic but nonetheless fascinating... |
| Urban CinefileLouise KellerRedemption and forgiveness are the themes of this potent drama in which a man is driven by his conscience...Unforgettable and powerful, this is a unique work with a pulsating heart. |
