...heart ripping apart inside.” The movie’s one unequivocal asset is its cinematography. Beautiful images of Joon roaming the barren desert beneath a multicolored sunset serve to redeem some of the movie’s lesser moments. When the boy is later caught trying to sneak across the Chinese border, he is sent to a youth labor camp that exists entirely in shades of brown—a choice that is striking and bleak, if not subtle.
