"A truly crushing experience of trying to keep hope when there seems to be none. The story telling is rich, the world a stark colour palette of grey and browns that feels as if it's absorbed the life out of everything, leaving only empty shells.
The violence is strong but minimal, the few instances reminding us just how vicious the world has become. The entire experience seems to be about faith in humanity, the main character is always seesawing between the balance of hope for his son and mistrust of others, a harrowing scene with a thief makes you question if his humanity is finally gone.
Haunting, dark, and utterly absorbing, this film bathes in the horror of humans but is also a wonderful case for how hope will always linger with some"
