Bewertungen und Rezensionen

An excellent film which tries to question the question "What makes a family?" Stand out performances from the entire family, their dynamic felt so natural and warm. Not always a feel-good film, it gets real when it needs to be when dealing with abuse, and consequences for bad choices.
