The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

Great acting, interesting script and a structure easy to fallow.If you're looking for a drama that reflects precisely on the eastern everyday life and a little more then this film is for you. It had what I look for in a drama - the display of plain beauty/horror of life and no pushed emotions. But without making it long and dull.I found it similar to London to Brighton and Oranges and Sunshine.It is a European production that keeps you interested throughout the whole story and has an ending with an emotion. You will not be bored or feel like you've waisted your time.My only criticism would be the occasional poor camera work.(This is my first review, hope it's useful.)
