That is a emotional and touching movie. It depicts the lives of people ruined by war in a sophisticated yet emotional way. There is something sad about the movies with all the wide shots, the melancholy songs and the faces of actors and actresses. As a whole, it’s like a sad anthem of vítims of war, torned apart by their own choices. I did not watch it continuously but I am still touched by it.
