Reel Review with Zoe (Real FM)
Reel 1: The Covenant (A Movie to Stream!)
The Covenant was released in 2023, created by filmmaker Guy Ritchie and starring Jake Gyllenhaal. The film is a fictional story inspired by the real life events between the United States and Afghanistan in 2018. It is a story centered on two characters, Jake Gyllenhaal's character a Master Sergeant in Afghanistan named John Kinley, and his Afghan interpreter named Ahmed. Ahmed and John have a unique relationship, as described in the title: The Covenant.
Zoe found this movie to be moving, powerful, heavy but good and important in many ways and she highly recommends it if you're looking for a movie to stream online. The film can be found on Amazon Prime or elsewhere for rent.
