The Present

My favourite thing about films like this is that you get to see other things in the world that you wouldn't normally experience, for better or for worse.

I don't really know much about the subject but after watching this I researched a little bit about it and I'm still not 100% sure what the point in these checkpoints are but I did read that workers have to stand and wait at them from 3am to go to work. That is crazy.

This film shows that struggle by forming it as a simple shopping trip that takes the whole day, from early in the morning and having them return when it's dark. It's shows the cruelty of people and that people with power will try and use that against people with none.

The Lead actor was fantastic and you could see the rage and pain in his eyes.
