Well I saw this on Saturday and all I can say is wow!

Very bizarre and very surreal but a fantastic social commentary on immigration, refugees, racism, politics and foreign policy.

Don’t want to say to much as its awful to do that to someone who may want to see it but I would highly recommend this film. If like me you have serious concerns about society’s decaying morals, then see this.
