About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a quiet, emotional road movie about outsiders finding dignity and connection, with moments of humor and hardship; Not for you if you prefer fast-paced thrills or light escapism like 1000 Mabrouk.

Pros: deeply moving and humane; realistic road-trip feel; warmth amid hardship | Cons: rough around edges; a few plot holes; some clichéd moments
