Let’s take a look at the life of Sri Lankan refugees in the French countryside. I can't tell the difference between Sri Lankans and Indians. Although there is no dancing, in the end, the God of War kills the gangster.

6.8 I can probably understand Cotillard's creative intentions. Going deep into Europe from the perspective of refugees and comparing the chaotic scenes of French suburbs to the local wars, the temporary family is more moving. Various sound effects and visual effects are completed. It still feels weird to mix and match elements of many genres in this movie, and the happyend at the end was handled too casually.
