It opens like the Darney brothers and ends like a Kenlodge. Unexpectedly, so many familiar business elements have been added to such a simple subject matter. The characters are like peeling an onion. The surface is embarrassed. Peeling one layer is sour, and peeling another layer is a real light.

Real life cruel immigrant version of "Fake Family". It is a genre film, but there is no smooth and compact plot, but a little embarrassing life makes me feel pity. The turmoil caused by the war makes the weak human beings can only continue their lives under fear. In that kind of environment, life is the greatest. Perhaps the only pursuit is to live, not to make life meaningful. The climactic shootout made my blood boil, and the ending was too dreamy and unreal.

Yalini: In Sri Lanka when you fall and you hurt yourself, you smile. Here, if you smile too much, people think that you don't understand them or that you're mocking them.
