I watched this movie at DIFF, and from the start I loved its gritty exterior... only to fall in love with the HEART of it.
The characters are designed brilliantly, they are true to themselves, never changing their convictions, yet always adapting to their surroundings.
The premise is tried and tested, and the environment equally so, but that does not take away from the core message this movie brings across brilliantly.
Yes, there are rough edges, yes there are scenes that are tough to watch, but this movie is full of honesty, and that sets it apart from anything else.
