DVG 12/28/2022 A well done reflection on life, family, nationality, colonialism, and art. See more Xarah Makeyla 12/02/2022 This movie is like seeing stars, suddenly time has passed but also no time has passed, you are in one world one moment then reality shifts and you're not sure what exactly is happening.
