As I watched this movie, I found that rather than being a knock-about comedy which I thought it was going to be, it became very emotional and thought provoking. I didn't know if at the end I should feel happy, sad, disturbed, satisfied or just what. Maybe that is the way it is supposed to be since so oftentimes, life is exactly all of those things at once. The performances are sound, I especially appreciated the work of Jacob Derwig who plays Nino in a performance that is so focused in on a man's struggle to do what is right for himself it is positively inspiring. Sylvia Poorta as Michelle, one of the sisters, also gives a really lovely performance. I wish I knew what the title means. Does anyone know what Zus & Zo means?
