The fact that this movie felt recognizable and relatable to the point where you can reminisce yourself being in locations very similar to that of shown in the movie, imagining your own relatives as the characters, situations in which corruption is involved, even imagining the scent of an entrance of an old floor building, the smell of tobacco in the house and in the taxi is just scary, this film shows the bare truth, the inevitable fates of women in Kazakhstan, harmful traditions and mentality of the population, which are still very far from being left in the past. Honestly such a traumatizing watch, yet representative and eye opening masterpiece
