This is a very "wake up and pay attention" sort of movie. Definitely not for the narrow minded or faint hearted. The movie will leave you cold, but at the same time is worth watching. The acting is very well done and very well directed. The love scenes are not often and not discomforting. In fact the love between Irene and Hidalla is touching and sweet.There is a great deal of violence in this movie and it is incredibly fast paced. Mary Nighy, Hannah Taylor Gordon and Jacquiline Bisset give outstanding performances which make the movie worth watching. Sad story. But a very good movie.But if you are not sensitive to violence and wish to see this movie I would highly recommend it. It is actually brilliant if watched carefully. Similar movies include,Magdelene Sisters, Girl Interuppted and Boys Don't Cry. Disturbing, but very good. Well done to all the actors.
