Alone among many

Ratings
IMDB 7.0/10
Rotten Tomatoes Audience 3% wants to see it
A documentary of a juvenile delinquent facility in Russia. All seems orderly but underneath, they are still children, vulnerable and it seems will still be in the bad books of the state when they become adults. A 7.0/10 for the effort.



My impressions:

Children
Why do turn up they way they do

Is anyone to blame
Is anyone responsible
Parents, family, the state
But for certain
It is not in born

The feelings
Loneliness, longing
For the family and loved ones
Is still there
Intact

They may have been on the wrong path
Some say willingly
With open eyes
But is that true
Or are there mitigating factors
That influence
The decision
To take a certain path

We can only hope
Their resolution
To turn over a new leaf
Succeeds
