The story moves along slowly and after the abrupt end it seemed that it didn't really move along at all. . Many of the characters lack development and seems to fit common pastiches; the African mother who berates her son for his lack of a 'real' job and her son the mixed-race kid with a burgeoning rap career. The only interesting character is Sekou who shines in a film that should of used him more. Disappointed to say the least

Medan vi lever (While We Live) is about how to handle cultural differences between Europe and Africa, specifically Gambia and Sweden. Unlike most work on the matter it is not one sided and not hard hitting. Instead we get a quick glimpse into how several people of all ages and backgrounds try to handle cultural differences without going into high drama or clichees. Although the movie can drag on a bit now and then, a bit like real life, it all somehow works it's way into the end of a movie. The viewer is left with a feeeling that yes, this is mostly like it could happen in normal life. A pleasant 90 minutes for reflection on the modern world of globalization.
