This tale could quite easily have been told in ninety minutes. It's a fallacy to think that a worthy story needs well over two hours in which to be told.

So very little happens for so very long that when there are some developments as we approach the one hour mark, the pace becomes almost dizzying. But eventually things calm down again and we are back to things progressing at a snail's pace.

So while the reality portrayed here is truly appalling and heartbreaking, I really don't think this film adds much of value. And I did struggle quite a bit with Cielo's naivety and apparent invincibility.
