Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film
Contentar Best movie of this year hands down!
BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
