    Deep drama
    Sad and heartbreaking. People living tough lives in tough times.
    Being a prostitute has never been a walk in the park, and it's not romanticized in any way.
    One-sided loved can crush your hopes, and when hope is the only thing you have... it will also crush your soul.
    Yet this is beautifully depicted. Art is gorgeous.

    Surprising ending
    I really enjoyed this. Deals with some heavy topics and had an ending that I didn't expect at all...
