A Spanish drama.
Spectacular
Quality
It is about a boy who seeks to leave Africa for witnessing a moment of illegal hunting and how his family is attacked by this situation, in fact it shows the success in being able to reach Europe, although he has two other stories that indirectly contribute to the plot. Adú's is the central one.
He talks about the odyssey that migrants live and everything they have to suffer to try to achieve a better life.
Raw
Current.
Moustapha Oumarou's performance is extraordinary.
It is spoken in Spanish, English, French and dialects.
With emotional moments and other heartbreaking ones.
Did you read "We are all displaced" from Malala Yousafzai? Well this easy one can be one of many immigrant stories that the book handles.
The only problem with the film is that two or three special effects are not entirely achieved.
Watched this movie with no expectation, story is a little bit weird though, one story about a 7year old boy trekking through Africa trying to call home, other is a father who is trying to raise a daughter, overall amazing scenery, good acting, and good morals, but not really wow
This is interesting and watchable. It follows three story lines that loosely overlap. This may, however, be the major problem, in that the stories are not really linked strongly; so it's like watching three 30 minute movies all jumbled together. The weakest of these plots pertains to the border crossing guards who are alleged to have used excessive force; this story line is not well-developed and does not seem to warrant its own trail. So you've got (a) boy fleeing from killers, (b) father-daughter tension, and (c) police coverup, all meshed together. But acting is good, scenery good; and enjoyable movie.
Spectacular settings, sounds and production, a wonderful journey between different African countries where fragility can be appreciated. A drama where you can feel how difficult it is to go in search of a better world. Real Things in a real world. Totally Recommended
Beautiful landscapes, visuals and sad poignant settings for the 3 stories across 3 African. countries. Wonderful story, direction, acting. Simply marvelous!
