a movie based on 1984 riots and human nature

interesting juxtaposition of Hernando's storytelling with the events of 1984 Riots. Surely not easy to tackle such a sensitive matter and to revolve it, wrap it in with the concluding moments of the movie which utters surprise and thinking on how humanity functions. Brings out a debate within of concluding sentences by the officer My concern and interest were to see the balance of the information being fed, the facts of the event and the tension, or mini tension moments in the movie. I liked the duration of the movie which is short eleven minutes of so, and it decides to give you facts of what happened during the 1984 riots and how we might think, predict the events of how things unfold, yet the complex nature of mankind to think of something and be in spaces of negotiating what he or she feels is the right thing to do. the movie leaves you thinking of such day to day complexities of life
