"Happy" may not be the word for Finding Oscar's ending, but "tearful" certainly is.

Chicago Reader
The film becomes nearly unbearable as the soldiers, as well as a few survivors, recount what happened that day

DCist
These topics are undoubtedly important, but the pain experienced by countless Guatemalans deserves a more complex forum than this one.

The fog of filmmaking is only slightly clearer than the fog of war, but most of the time the power of Finding Oscar shines through.

Rating: A --
A beautifully told version of a tale that's both harrowing and intensely human, Finding Oscar is a remarkable feat of non-fiction that should not be missed.
