criticism

“Intense tragic comedy, sometimes marked by biting humor, about an inharmonious family get-together. Although the plot is quite predictable in its conflict situations and dialogues, thanks to the sensitive staging and the excellent actors, a multi-layered examination of the social construct 'family' succeeds.
