You’ll likely connect with this if you want a grounded, tense drama about family pressure and survival, especially if you like the feel of First Snow or Body Brokers; Not for you if you want something light or fast-paced.
Pros: empathetic storytelling; strong performances; gritty atmosphere | Cons: familiar poverty drama; some unclear details; heavy subject matter
