Dear Reader, Bearing in mind the film was released in 2013, a wider or broader context and evaluation is worth considering. I'm not going to dwell on peripherals such as low budget aspects but instead I will draw your attention to historical precedents and actions which are brought up to date during the drama. Those of you who study and value the apparent lessons we were meant to have learnt from the past see immediately that we are trapped in an endless prison of cruelty and violence . This is what the film is about. It requires a level of perception which some individuals do not possess nor are capable of ever seeing. With hindsight, a lot of the plot becomes very obvious, drawing on Dr Mengele, for example, Lord of the Flies, and Clockwork Orange. The reign of terror and intimidation within this orphanage carries on unchecked and un monitored. All the comments on this production either shy away from this or maybe the writers were watching an entirely different film? The message is powerful but the very fact that non-action is as sinful as action brings the evil out into the open. The smuggled camera ruse was brilliant - how else to garner vital evidence? This in itself may be a fictional drama / plot but behind the fiction lies a hideous world where such actions take place and are taking place unchecked. Looked at from another angle and this film is a wake-up call in every regime built on brutality, torture and total disregard for human lives.
