Many say it's easy to forgive, but they rarely are faced with the choice to. Many want us to forget, how possibly can we? You stuff your ears with your fingers to block the screams.

I don’t know if it’s because I'm on meds for the first time in my life but this gave me a strange, guttural feeling, as if I was watching a gore-filled horror film. Multiple times I felt out of breath. My whole body reacted in the theater as if the sounds of crying babies, gunshots and that terrifying score were activating something deep within my body.
I won’t ever forget the shot where beautiful red flower is shown on screen and the screen is slowly turning to “blood” red colour with a tortured screams in the background. On paper this would sound too minimalistic for a topic that is the most disturbing ever. One might expect a sensationalised version of this. But the director Glazer shows that your film doesn’t need to come under horror genre to make his viewers feel terrified or uncomfortable. Just the sound and our imagination is enough to understand this movie.

In the end I just couldn’t escape all the worrying sounds in the background. I believe I can say director is successful in making me feel this way. The ending sequence is…
