So much to do, and so little time. Or whatever Jack Nicholson's Joker said.

    A somber and intimate portrait of the trials and tribulations that come with Black motherhood in America, deftly balancing painful realism with surreal hope. A really lovely film all in all.

    I'm going to need a while to think about this one.

    The best way I can describe this film, though it won't make much sense to non-Zambians, is that it's like if one of those stories from our English textbooks was translated to the screen. Not in a particularly good or bad way, just, in a way. Apart from the cinematography, I feel like every other aspect of this movie was just okay at best. But it showed me that their is genuine artistry and artistic potential in this country of mine, and I'm interested to see what our cinematic industry will grow into.

    I fell in love with Angelina Jolie again so I don't think I can review this fairly.
