Slightly running accounts, the echoing metaphors of animals and people are not made. If you haven't seen the original, it should be Samsung. But if you have read the original... another star will be deducted. Really there is a problem with the script of the movie... I don’t like to add weird interaction with the male second and sexual harassment plot... The story of Antonina and Jan itself is very powerful, and it will be very moving without changing the soap plot like this.
