Bottom line on this is I enjoyed it. I was never sure where it was going and the uncertainty of the viewer contributed to the ongoing tension of the film.
I won't throw out spoilers. The opening scene is puzzling involving the fall of a young woman.
But the story shifts immediately to another similar young woman navigating her way between two families, her maestro husband and her boyfriend. The former with her two sons, the latter with her daughter.
The challenge comes with keeping her stories straight in each household as her job as a translator takes her all over the place (or does it?) The lead does a marvelous job in all the screen time she has and so does the supporting cast with some beautiful scenes.
The little actress who plays her daughter is incredibly good.
The slow denouement of the plot is gripping and the unexpected ending quite satisfying. And the opening scene explained.
8/10 from me.
