    resilience of the human spirit

    The Main actor was good, He exploration of memory, identity, and the resilience of the human spirit feels somewhat superficial, lacking in-depth introspection and examination. The emotional weight of losing touch with reality could have been further emphasized to create a more profound and resonant narrative.

    The performances in "Golia" are heartfelt, but at times, the characters feel underdeveloped, leaving the audience longing for more depth and complexity. Pietro De Silva was my favorite among them. Thought-provoking themes and portrays the struggles of its characters with sincerity and greatness.

    Good Performance by Actors/Actresses

    The performances are exceptional, with the actors delivering heartfelt portrayals that evoke empathy and hope. The cinematography captures the confined atmosphere of the nursing home, emphasizing the characters' isolation.

    "Golia" approaches sensitive subjects with sensitivity and grace. It prompts reflection on the inherent value and dignity of every individual, challenging societal norms. The gradual storytelling allows for a deep connection with the characters. The film strikes a balance between heavy subject matter and moments of tenderness, offering a well-rounded viewing experience.,,,,
