Having worked on this as 1st AC and being the Action Cinematographer for the bathroom fight scene, I was BEYOND shocked at how wonderful this film turned out! Without giving away spoilers...
The film follows a band of immigrants fleeing to pursue a better life elsewhere. Throughout their journey, each character faces challenges they never thought they'd 1. Encounter and 2. Be more horrendous than what they left.
The character development is solid throughout as each face their own challenges. The pacing is good with captivating moments throughout. And, the locations are plentiful helping to provide a great visual aesthetic to the story and everything happening "in the moment!"
Even though I worked on this, watching this a year later, I swear I forgot most of what I had done in this film LOL So, when I watched it at the premiere, I felt like I was watching this for the first time; cringing, gasping and, cheering at precise moments that the Director intended!
Great job to all the Crew and Cast! And, most importantly, bravo to the Director and Producer's for pushing through and finishing this, ensuring this story made it to the big screen!
