Umas sequências muito bonitas, mas chato demais. Riz Ahmed falando qualquer coisa eu fico completamente apaixonado, mas esse curta não empolga.

Riz Amed is great, but the story is a bit hard to follow. Good imagery though.

[...] turn our shame into pride....Behind Paris there will always have Algiers.Eu achei esse curta lindo e é extremamente interessante ver esse conflito que existe sobre não se encaixar em nenhum dos 2 lugares, além de através dessa reflexão conseguir demonstrar vulnerabilidade.

Porém ainda acho que para um assunto tão extenso como esse,um curta acaba não sendo o suficiente mas os takes são realmente muito bonitos e eu sempre irei defender qualquer trabalho do Ahmed.
