Phenomenal!

God Bless the writers for the subject of this film. The simplicity with which you approached a subject steeped in class difference and culture deserves huge accolades. Experimental cinematography. But the story is solid in character. Brilliance is written all over it.

To some extent relatable but nothing new

Basically the revolves around a Saudi family and how they treat their housemaid.

As i said nothing new, good points to that were illustrated in a creative way tho.

What I really like and would give 10/10

Are the visuals! I really liked the cinematography work! The color palette the editing!

This movie just gave me headache.

This movie gave me headache. The story and plot need a lot of work. The director focused on the filming and production way more the story itself. Its like he is just trying to show his skills. I like somethings in the movie and i like his skills but the visuals are too much for a short film. I can say the director is talented but he needs alot of work in regards to plot and story.

Watchable

The movie was in perspective of a kid and by logic kids will never think this way, the direction was perfect but the effects were disgustingly over. Lastly the story was just good, and a 6 out of 10 is perfectly fair for the movie, thanks.

Unique

I liked the deep concept and the directing is impressive Loved it and I definitely recommend it It's a bit dark but realistic the negative reviews were so strange and most of them gave 1 star which I really don't understand how could you dismiss the concept and such a beautiful directing style but I guess it's unique and not every body wants to watch something different then usual.
