Audience Member Great community story Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member I saw this film and have to say it is nothing what I expected. As an independent low budget drama film this completely surpasses my expectations. From the moment it started I was drawn into the plot and into the characters. Hands down I can see why this film has won awards and has been acknowledged. From start to finish I genuinely enjoyed watching it. I can't wait to see what Michael DeVita and David Melendez come up with next. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member I saw this movie when it premiered at the DC Film Festival. Beautiful camerawork and a great uplifting tale about overcoming adversity against the odds. I recommend. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Read all reviews
