Whilst the main couple's conflict is not original, the detail is. This movie may be set thousands of miles from where I live, but the small town's underlying fear is believable as it happened to my village and many others in my country, and these areas' cultures and way of life are dying off now. The difference in this story is that the lead prioritises the community's way of life rather than making changes to suit her lifestyle, she respects the past and wants to maintain the status rather than regenerate. She supports and nurtures people's skills and occupations rather than bringing in big chains.
