Our Problems is a gritty, raw portrayal of survival set within the confines of a refugee camp in Guinea Conakry. The film follows John and Tom, two teens caught in a cycle of crime, highlighting the desperation that fuels their choices. The atmosphere is heavy, a palpable tension permeates every scene, accentuated by the sparse and often haunting score. Satou's storyline adds a layer of complexity, revealing the struggles of young women in similar dire situations. The pacing feels deliberate, almost languid at times, which amplifies the weight of their circumstances. Performances are earnest and unpolished, breathing authenticity into the characters’ harsh realities, making it a piece that's tough to digest yet compelling to reflect on.
