I loved this film and I found it to be a very interesting watch. Each and everyone of the performances were incredible. One of the things I enjoyed and lifted the film was the musical soundtrack. The whole film to me felt completely real and felt I could relate to each of the characters. Apparently, the director has said in an interview that in her films she draws comparisons to the likes of Ken Loach and Quentin Tarantino and that they are the directors that have influenced her. The main message that comes out of this film is a sense of boundless hope and joy in its portrayal of female friendship and solidarity.
