The scenes where the girl is seen skating on ice were impressive, with the whiteness of snow and the immaculate surroundings being able to mute the sad reality of war, from the girl's mind. The girl's effort to distract herself from the bombings was effective at first although eventually she had to face the truth as it is. The fear is evident in her eyes and the trauma of war consumes her but I was hoping she had put in more effort and emotion when she did her ice skating scene, as a way of releasing pent-up emotions. Still, cinematography made up for the lacking elements, do check out this film, folks!
