Despite oddly choppy accents and some slower moments than a slow-burning story needs, this is a wonder. It is a story that should be seen and heard. If you haven't know violence, it is crucial; if you have, it is utterly respectful, familiar, perhaps healing.
What the slow burning plot does well is the inching towards reveals and epiphanies that happen as patiently crafted as the scenes surrounding them. No tricks of twists, no Hollywood quick turns.
The journey all these characters take, especially Alice, happens as life happens. One moment at a time.
Characters are complex and dynamic in rare realness; you'll find no heroes where it seems you will and no pure villains.
Flowers grow slowly from seed yet bloom quickly, like this beautiful piece of acting, courage, and community.
