The pacing feels deliberate - not rushed, allowing you to really absorb the stories being told. There’s a range of characters, each offering a unique perspective, and their performances blend together to form a tapestry of urban struggle. What stands out is its unvarnished portrayal of a city grappling with inefficiency and the everyday heroism of those who rely on the bus.
