The street friends she finds are a mixed bag—some are genuine, others kind of trouble. It explores themes of resilience and how bonds can form in the most unexpected places. The performances have this raw authenticity; you can really feel the weight of their lives. It’s not flashy, but the practical effects used in certain scenes create an almost haunting realism.
