This movie is difficult and uncomfortable to watch, which is the point. Alanna shoots the movie in a tight space, following four women as they try to survive a war in hiding. The way this film is shot puts you in the small crawl space with these women, making you feel claustrophobic and uneasy. It brings to life for the viewer what these women are feeling. This is a movie to be experienced, not just watched. You will leave with a greater appreciation of the suffering war brings as well as the strength and companionship it takes to survive it. This is a beautiful film, written and directed by a very talented female director. I highly recommend this film.
