Don The situation and Rosa herself are both dark and brooding. Silence speaks louder than the sparse script. It's captivating as you follow Rosa's quiet and methodical determination to create a better future. A very good movie, a long long way away from your standard fare, where you usually know the plot in moments and just watch to be entertained. In this, you watch to wonder what's going to happen. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews
