Sukuru

Sukuru portrays hidden and taboo issues in Cape Verde - mental health and drug addiction.

'Sukuru' is interesting! I was intruiged by this 2017 release for the vast majority, admittedly aside from a 5-15 minute spell around the middle of the 93 minute run time. The film is put together neatly enough, while the acting is very much serviceable - Jap Pires and Vera Cruz perform well. The use of flashbacks/etc. is good, if a little overly entwined ever so slightly. Overall, for a film "made entirely with no financing" - I appreciate it.
