Criticism

"The history of increased emotions is no real hymn to a mother's love, but a more complex exploration of a dramatic conflict situation. It's about questions of responsibility, ownership, affiliations, to loneliness and death. Despite weaker actor's performance within the total cycle is an important element. "
