Film: The Long Road to Heaven

Filed under: Entertainment, Islamism by Chad at 2:23 pm CST

A new Indonesian film entitled ‘The Long Road to Heaven‘ follows three convited terrorists who were behind the 2002 Bali bombings and, reportedly, questions if those involved in terrorist acts truly do get a free pass to sit next to Allah.

LONG ROAD TO HEAVEN

From AKI:

Besides providing a look at what could have driven the three bombers to organise the terror attacks, the film examines the tragedy through the eyes of a local taxi driver, an American woman going to Bali after having lost her husband in the September 11, 2001 terror attacks on the Twin Towers and an Australian journalist writing about the attack. Among the 202 killed in the 2002 Bali bombings, 88 were Australian.

Seems interesting enough, and it’s good to see the Islamist doctrine of ‘martyrdom’ attacks being questioned in the world’s most populus Muslim nation. It opens on January 25, including in the U.S., and I’ll pick it up when it comes out on DVD.

Digg It!
