A woman working in a sweatshop is told she can not go to her child's wedding or she will be fired. A butcher has to deal with the aftermath of an accident.
One of the best films I've seen for Dances With Films this year is a quiet gem. This dual narrative look at the immigrant way of life is going to kick you in the ass. Its a film that feels lived in and is coming from life. I was moved. While the sweatshop narrative the heavier of the two, the butcher's tale is more compelling.
I really liked this film a great deal.
This is exactly the small gem that I set up Unseen Films to highlight.
Recommended.
