Plot
Twice-orphaned Jace, a seven-year-old Albanian of Greek origin, witnesses a massacre that wipes out his entire foster family in Argyrokastron, and then falls in the hands of a bunch of ruthless gangsters who "export" children abroad for various profitable reasons (ranging from beggary to organ trade).
Sinekatalog’s take
A grim, child-centered drama about a young orphan swept from tragedy into the hands of those who traffic children. It aims for emotional impact and social outrage, and the subject matter is heavy. Strong on empathy, it will suit viewers prepared for a harrowing story.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
