Unfortunately Overestimated

Rating: 5/10 (28 May 2017)

I was excited to see this film since I am adopted myself. The beginning was engaging and pulled in the viewer. The crazy situation resulting in the child's separation from his family was interesting. Then seeing the horrible conditions the children endured while living on the streets. When the film switches to an adult version of our character, the plot slows way down becoming mired in old flashback scenes which are meaningless to the viewer. Also, there is an adopted brother who is developmentally delayed with behavioral issues that distract from the film's content. Wanted to like this, but it just became to slow and the abstract "visions" weren't enough to keep this going.
