Actress-turned-director Feo Aladag isn’t a particularly expressive filmmaker, and she hits a few bum notes toward the end that feel more like movie payoffs than real-life drama, but she tackles this story with surprising nuance and depth. Based on an “honor killing” that took place in Berlin in 2005, When We Leave, Germany’s worthy submission for the Best Foreign Language Film Oscar, starts with a mother’s simple instinct to protect her son.
