A good and solid film, but it is fairly overstuffed. Even though I LOVE films without a structure and more of a amorphous type of film, I feel like this movie definitely would of benefited with more structure, as it turns into a movie with a whole bunch of subplots.

Law, Accountability, Responsibility, Complex, Formal, Religious, Forgiveness, Corrupt, and War.
They only wanted to sing and pass the time and ignore the problems that were around them,
To live a good life where there is water, food, and proper shelter,
To be a normal and nonviolent individual towards their partner,
To clean one's body from the sins,
To establish peace and prosperity.
Yet the world seems to have provided the wrong path and a slow change for these people.
