Featured review
An amazing thesis of the interconnectedness of systemic oppression across cultures
This is a very moving film. The performances were top notch. The film has a slow pace, but it picks up around the half way mark with more interesting turns for the protagonist.
It's amazing to see the growth of the protagonist as she grows in strength after experiencing tremendous loss. It propels her to finish what she started.
Editing was good along with costume design.
The film definitely could have been shorter. I heard several snores in the theater, but my wife and I were glued to the nuanced discussions going on in the film.
It's-a film with a slow burn but satisfying finish. I'd watch it again actually!
