About
If you like gritty coming-of-age dramas with a melancholy edge and the offbeat mood of Fallen Angels or Sweet Sixteen, this may land hard; Not for you if you want light, tidy, or uplifting stories.
Pros: raw emotional impact; vivid city atmosphere; tender amid bleakness | Cons: slow pacing; disjointed scenes; very heavy themes
