Adú (2020)

Adú: Directed by Salvador Calvo. With Luis Tosar, Álvaro Cervantes, Anna Castillo, Moustapha Oumarou. Three people, three stories, one thing in common: Africa.

“This is interesting and watchable. It follows three story lines that loosely overlap. This may, however, be the major problem, in that the stories are not really linked strongly; so itu0026#39;s like watching three 30 minute movies all jumbled together. The weakest of these plots pertains to the border crossing guards who are alleged to have used excessive force; this story line is not well-developed and does not seem to warrant its own trail. So youu0026#39;ve got (a) boy fleeing from killers, (b) father-daughter tension, and (c) police coverup, all meshed together. But acting is good, scenery good; and enjoyable movie.”
