A Love to Keep Audience Reviews

Matcollis This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.
NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!
Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

But the years of been under electroshocks have damaged her health, and make it impossible to live a normal life. What follows is to be seen. The story is touching enough, the acting is quite good, the whole movie is a good depiction of the fate of minorities under such regimes. What is impressive is the lack of understanding of the mother, and the cruelty of her attitude. Not a masterpiece, but worth to see it.
