Started on Netflix season One which is actually season 3. Recommend starting with the ITV Season 1 and 2 so you will understand it better. Season 1 and 2 are called Top Boy Summerhill whereas Netflix Season 1 is actually season 3 and then 4 and 5
It started in Jamaica which the actors speaking Jamaican Patois which is difficult to understand even with subtitles on.
The acting is quite brilliant as they are really hard nose and strong. If you didn't know they were acting you'd believe they are actual gang member with the way they look each other in the eyes.
The sad thing is it shows the real side of exported Jamaican crime that actually exists in large Jamaican populations. Reminded me of the wire.

The lead actress's acting was very good but the movie never really gets going. It moves slowly through progressive events with no real connection. Some results are predictable but basically a sad for all involved including the animals and told poorly.
Several people left the cinema mid film. There are English subtitles but the trailer I found online was in German. This movie was chosen by our German consulate as the German submission to our European Film Festival. Despite great expectations this movie did not live up to the hype that preceded it.
There is also an online interview on Youtube with the director and lead actress.

A beautiful love story with some very touching emotional scenes, especially when 2 strangers can bring a daughter and father back together. Shot not only in Shanghai but also in Greece and Austria capturing the beauty of all 3 places.
The script was very cleverly crafted to incorporate conversation between 2 strangers of opposite sex and culture in a humorous way.
I liked that it wasn't a typical sexually provocative movie where people drop their morals but one that deals with old time morals and avoids bedroom and sexual encounters. I was hooked from beginning to end.
The Director was present for our showing but I couldn't stay until the questions and answers. I wanted to know why Shanghai was depicted with so few cars and people. Empty roads and no crowds. My experience of Shanghai is that people are everywhere. Maybe the Government edited and restricted the ugly side of the city to promote a positive view.
Anyway a real fairytale and feel good movie.
