Excellent but underrated film
The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
