Top review

7/10

sad and horrendus reality, recommended viewing.

As previous reviewer said , conditions of slavery portrayed is probably much more horrible at times then whats on film.

Corruption is presented in brief moments.

Overall, with a ending that make much sense, is a movie that make me feel sad about how physical and mental acertive brut force run the world.
