Sinekatalog’s take

A builder learns that the mother of his adopted daughter has been freed after years in prison and must decide how to tell the girl about her mother's past. Sacrifice and shame drive the story. A weepy Greek melodrama for fans of the form.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
