Vladan Petkovic Cineuropa An insightful film that combines both poetic and strictly narrative moments, and takes a thoughtful approach to the protagonist, without passing any judgement on the state of human rights in Hungary. Oct 1, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Peter F Liked this a lot. It shows the strength but also the difficulties and doubts of a girl that escapted forced marriage in Somalia and somehow ended up in Budapest, Hungary. At the time of shooting, she has learnt the language quite well and is preparing for her final exams, which presents quite a lot of challenges - on top of the challenges of starting a new life as a teen alone, in a vastly different culture. The movie is smartly and tastefully made and definitely worth a watch if the topic is of any interest to you. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/22/25 Full Review Read all reviews
