The struggle for breaking out
hkim-1013 December 2022
Excellent portrayal of one of the poorest regions of central Europe and also the challenges of having a speech impediment. But the hero's condition is not the main focus, just a clever way of channeling the struggle of escaping our roots. Vilmányi Benett clearly put a lot of effort into this role and you really feel for his character. This movie makes you appreciate everything you have in life and will certainly leave a mark. Not an easy watch, no light moments, every second is completely focused on the problems at hand, almost claustrophobic. Highly recommended nevertheless, very well made movie.

One of the best movie experiences in the last few years

A nice surprise this movie.

Acting is awesome, there is a great character growth. Pictures are SO realistic you get sucked into the story and it becomes your reality. Very rough but very nice.

The main actor Benett playing Adam is doing a very good job at portraying of this stuttering boy. I love the friendship found with his rapper friend.

It is not a happy movie, not a good-feel movie but definitely a movie that tells a story worth telling, showing that specific area of Hungary (deepest poverty). Even as a Hungarian I know nothing of these depths - luckily. This story stays with you. I am very happy to have discovered this actor, will keep on eye on him, just like I will for the director.

Must watch.
