Went in the cinema with high expectations and it didn't fully deliver. Cinematography, sound editing and main performances are excellent. Plot on the other hand... yes you havr the twists and all of that, but it felt it tries too hard to decieve you.
I've been told that the director says the movie has no political message... let me tell you how cinema and art in general works: you create something amd put it out threre for people yo consume and it no longer belongs to you. It's for the audience to decide if it has a meaning and a message. And my friend, there is an obvious message in your movie, not just once but twice you talk openly about it in the screen and use it as a plot device. So take a look again to your own movie, you are in for a surprise.
