This is how I see it:

It was about the importance of homes and about how broken systems can destroy homes and individuals.

Kathy, Bahrani and his family are so desperate and frustrated, but why shouldn't they be? They are victims to broken law systems and to the wrong way things are handled by governments. Bahrani is forced to leave his homeland. Kathy is forced to leave her house. And Esma'eel ends up dead; all because of the way the governments and the law people decided to handle the situation some desperate people were caught in. It shows that even law can be blind.

The ending was too sad, but I guess that's what life and reality is.

Jennifer Connelly's performance was brilliant.
