Featured review
There are secrets to be uncovered now she has passed, the undiscovered stories, that she'd amassed, a father and a brother, you didn't know, could there be others, it's time to lift the bedrock, of the past. You make a visit to a country, in the east, where friction, conflict, war, chaos, have seldom ceased, walking footsteps left in shadow, as you plough a lonely furrow, a record slowly forming, piece by piece. You discover revelations, tragedy; events of circumstance and shocking gravity, an uncontrived coincidence, implications beyond immense, that point to why your mother had to run and flee.
One of the best films you'll come across, brilliantly directed and performed, heart wrenching and packed full of emotion and turmoil.
