Another art imitates life instant classic associated with Baltimore City and a true account.

First thing is, any movie with Matthias Schoenaerts is going to be intense and authentic ever since he was 13yrs old. The movie was shot very well, great directing, amazing cast.

I give this movie, four stars because the cast really came across as believable, this was a very intense, difficult movie to watch. It shows the exploitation by colonizers of the African people didn't end when independence was gained. The hardest part to watch is the exploitation by their own people.

Cinematography is great, but it was another story about slaves and masters and they tried to make into a love story. There is nothing to like about exploitation and enslavement of another people whether the setting is North or South America.
