Everything flows in the movie. Everything is fluid. Fluid professions, fluid nationalities, friendships, sexualities, relationships, values, priorities. But the flow is bridged with gentle grace, even with the most ruthless realities.
I really wanted to wish all the characters the very best, but I needn't bother - because they seem quite capable of gritty survival. Most of them. All in all, it's about sadness, wistfulness, resignation, persistence- all captured in the lead's eyes. Good movie.
P.s - I really hope people don't straight-wash the male bonding and intimacy. It definitely adds to the film, and I hope it isn't hijacked.
