    Breath of fresh air
    I found film enjoyable, somewhat spiritual, uplifting and healing. Great acting. And the storyline is captivating and humbling. Hope we get more like this. Heard some nice original music . The film has grassroots down to earth vibe. It touches you ever so lightly but the touch is static charged and electric will make that hair stand up on your neck and bring tear to eyes tug on heart strings but you won't be able to stop smiling. I think this one will stay with me. Hope also to see the lead actor in more roles. He has strong presence. Like vanilla ice meets Val Kilmore. El es my symoatico.a definate ladies man. 🥂

    Excellent acting
    It's been done before but not exactly this way. Still it's a very good drama/comedy, the actors -every single one of them down to the smallest parts- are amazing.

    Definitely worth watching, you might have wet eyes when Vince watches the tapes of his late brother, you will definitely laugh when he goes door to door to get a gig and meets the strong characters of the Peckham local scene.

    Also quite the eclectic casting with the gorgeous Eleanor Matssura (The Walking Dead), and a strong presence from Kurt Egyiawan and his voice that reminds me of Don Cheadle.

    A solid 7, and I'm a mean rater...
