The film has been described as an “intersection of emotions” as the main characters must deal with anger, kindness, violence, despair, prejudice and injustice.
This is the second feature film for the Uganda born Swedish filmmaker. His first, About Sara, won the Golden St. George Prize for Best Film at the 2006 Moscow International Film Festival.
