“No pun intended – the movie will test your patience. As much as it seems to test the one of our main character. Someone who needs to break free – will she be able to?

Of course I may be reading something here that was not entirely intended. But you may find other things of that nature (again, no pun intended) … like the role of ants. Are we supposed to compare them to humans? Them being able to work together … not fighting each other? Well … maybe.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAlso the movie does not have a coherent language .. I reckon it is because we are not supposed to blame one nation on the status quo … or we can project which nation we want to see … who treats people that badly. Again you can see a lot here … or almost nothing … cinematography is really good, no matter what you think of the substance though … actors may not be trained (many moments that feel anything but professional), but maybe that adds charm … again you decide … same goes for the twist at the end …”
