Utterly boring to watch, but some interesting ideas.

This movie has nothing extraordinary, and I suspect that the 10/10 reviews are from the production themselves.

Otherwise, there are some really good ideas, and the the choice of location is great. You get some nice place specially in India and Uganda.

The main problem is that once the movie pass 30 min, the story goes all other the place, the main character seems to act randomly and the narration get lost in long and boring non senses.

The movie stop becoming interesting and it is hard to reach the end without suffering off boredom.

The director needs to manage the tempo of his movie to keep the interest of the viewer. Having beautiful scenery is not enough.

The storytelling in this movie is pretty bad.

Intense and beautiful

Deeply engaging film, gorgeously shot and directed. It's very conceptually ambitious but stays well-grounded in the characters. Esther Tebandeke stands out for her really strong performance. The opening scene has really stuck in my head!

Fantastical Rollercoaster ride in the Motherland

This ambitious film is a beautifully written mind binding story with unique characters, dramatic performances and stunning visuals mostly shot in the mystical jungles of eastern Uganda.

Fresh Debut

An exceptional debut. This is a beautifully shot and masterfully acted thriller with fantasy elements. Non genre fans should not let the SF/fantasy elements deter them though, there is enough plot depth, biting satire and lush photography to satisfy most discerning cinephiles. Eagerly looking forward to seeing more from this new director. Definitely recommend. Check it.
