Featured review
This won't be an easy watch, in fact, some scenes are just too horrifying to even watch, because we know what happens to some of the poor souls who are held hostage with Daniel. I still cannot comprehend how humans can be so horrible to their fellow man, I suppose that is the point, they saw them as subhuman purely based on their nationality.
This film is excellently acted, the lead actor who plays Daniel is just superb, you can feel every single emotion, you can feel the terror, the hopelessness.
It's one of those films that will stay with you long after, I wonder how one would go on living having gone through such trauma but they do, thankfully, and live to tell the world what happened.
Watch this film.
