Thanks, Jessica. SONG OF THE EXILE a great suggestion. I saw the film 
years ago and thought it was very moving. There *is* a subtitled DVD 
available, but it's an import and requires a region-free multistandard 
DVD player. It sounds as if the quality is not all that hot, but the 
film itself is certainly worth seeing.

I'm reluctant to push individual vendors, but so far I've only been 
able to find it at:

Hope this helps.

Best,
