Thought it was an Indian film
Though not the usual type of film I watch as it was somewhat slow paced. But that was required, for the questions it raises about the sanctity of life, of morality, and whether we have a role in choosing one life over another were portrayed in such a powerful manner. But most importantly of all, it shows that no matter how desolate a place of ruin may seem, hope, love and life still bloom in such harsh places.
