About
You may like this if you enjoy understated relationship dramas, patient pacing, and true-to-life moods similar to Red Desert or Adua and Her Friends; Not for you if you want a busy plot or big dramatic turns.
Pros: honest everyday emotions; quietly moving romance; rich sense of place | Cons: very slight story; slow pace; emotionally distant for some
