13) Personal opinin

In my opinion it's a pretty tough movie about kids who have to look for life on an island, and
where conditions and power make them change everything.

The bad thing is to have power and not know how to use it, and how hard it is to abuse the
weakest. A film that makes you think about the human being and its behavior and its limits,
even when they are children and what they are able to do in a cold and solitary environment.

Fear, doubts, despair, loneliness play a good role in the movie but at the same time it is also
bad and leads to catastrophic moments.
