BroadcastChic Excellent, a Must See
Seraherrera The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity
Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Celia A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
