Good work with many technical problems. An extremely low budget and a movie created in a country without consistent cinema culture. Imagine how you would evaluate a movie shot in Europe or USA many many decades ago. That's it. It is really a good movie considering the resources that they had available.

In overall I liked the movie. It was made in a low budget and it is one of first movies of its category. You're not supposed to be comparing it with multimillion dollar budget Hollywood movies. Moreover, as someone stated below, Angola does not finance nor have degrees in cinema. I am proud of this project and eager to watch the sequence. Come on, the first Angolan movie in Netflix!! It's not perfect, it has several errors of continuation and there's something missing in the argument. But it was a very good effort and Team should be proud and feel accomplished! A beautiful day to be an Angolan woman!

There is a good story being told, there are good actors, there is a good director! Obviously, the final work is not what is expected of a film that will be in Cannes or other fancy festivals! The movie delivers what is expected of a really very limited budget movie that took years to complete. It also must be analyzed from the perspective of the significance it has for the development of the country's film industry. It is not simple or easy to become a filmmaker and develop a movie in a poor and resourceless country! It's very funny when people with limited vision and precarious ability to analyze reality, watch an African film, built on a very low budget, and expect to find Hollywood quality! Lol! Last week, I watched a movie from Mozambique (Resgate). I hope netflix will make more African films available very soon. Go on guys

You will have a good timepass during this lockdown. This movie will not disappoint you. The movie is not worst at all. But I know you would be able yo watch antly movie during this pandemic coz. You won't have anything to pass your time. So, I wanna say this is a good movie to watch. And sorryy for not saying anything about this movie in this review, because I want everyone to watch this movie because this is not a bad movie. So finally Thank You for reading my review. Have a good day. May god bless you all who are reading my review and may you be blessed and and family may be blessed too. Take care all of you who are reading this review.

When you make a movie, you need to understand that you're telling a story. So, dialogue and narrative are extremely important. With that said, this is by far the worst dialogue I've seen in the past few years; I'm Angolan and I couldn't finish watching this movie.

A movie can also be a portrayal of a society. This movie also failed at that. That is not how Angolan people talk, move or act. So, what is your movie trying to accomplish really?

Now, moving forward, look to Brazillians as an example. They focus on character development and story (City of God, Tropa de Elite, etc). Focus on THAT!
