Add a CommentOh, my God, this movie! For some reason, I thought this was a documentary, even before watching it, so the first ten minutes, or so, the production style reinforced that misunderstanding. The plot line made me realize, after that point, that it was drama, but even knowing that completely, the production was done so impeccably that I watched the entire film on the edge of my seat; consumed by the rawness of the story. It's not one I'll see and forget easily. Two thumbs up for a truly original indie film that rocked it's genre.
A really good film. Good acting all the way around. Almost has a documentary style in with the camera shots. The Prince steals the show.
