08/05/2021 This is a very dark, moody movie of incredibly improbable proportions... almost a fable. Its got some good acting, and kinda carefully crafted in the indie vein to jump around artily... and give you the gist of things happening present and past. Its heartfelt, and well intentioned, with a lot of hand held camera. See more Read all reviews
