“What worked:nThe movie is as real as it can get; characters are not as black and white as we see in the movies. Itu0026#39;s a well executed movie piece with characters with more than a linear life story. Each had their own story, their struggles and hardship. Itu0026#39;s an enjoyable watch, and a well climaxed story. As a movie viewer from a different language, itu0026#39;s a treat.nWhat did not work:nMaybe some parts of the story could have been garnished and well explained. The movie leaves some plotholes. On the other hand the characters and stories are not glorified because maybe they wanted to show the characters and the narrative in the gray area; not exactly explaining things.nFinal verdict: recommended”
