Firstly this movie is amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love Johannes, he is an amazing actor. I literally read all right through the movie as it was not in English. But I feel that this movie was of a high quality, I am personally not a drama and love fan but he made it brilliant! Leilah Ps Johannes call me lol....
