  • Harrowing, only bearable to watch thanks to the beautiful moments and the values of friendship and courage.
  • A film that had to be made – the ‘boatpeople’ are… people!  Super performances from whole cast.
  • Very good cast; Super music.
    Very realistic but a hard watch, some of it.
  • Great soundtrack
  • Great young actors.
  • My heart was racing all through the film.
  • As powerful as I’d heard to expect.
  • Brutally moving. I loved it.
  • Excellent film
• ‘Very Good’: 5 votes
  • Good acting and a well told story. The age-old belief that opportunity awaits in the big city, only now (with the advent of social media) being played out globally.
  • I found it almost too horrible to watch. Not a film to repeat.  Not sure I could believe it as fiction either.
  • Hard to watch, but a good narrative.  A happy ending?  New take on the buddy movie!
  • A very thought-provoking film with moral & ethical dilemmas.
• ‘Good’: 2 votes
  • What happened next?
  • The first half or so was wonderful.  The last section on the boat seemed unbelievable and the final scene too positive – or was that all another piece of fantasy.
• ‘Satisfactory’: 0 votes
• ‘Poor’: 0 votes
