Worth seeing, but the sentimentality is not handled

Worth seeing, but the sentimentality is not handled very convincingly. Hanna before going to the rig spends most of the time with her hearing aid in the off position. Then, it is on 24/7. Due to her trauma, she uses a new bar soap every day, a quite unique obsession. When her coworkers complain that she is aloof, management forces her to take a one month vacation alone, which will be a great opportunity to bond. She doesn’t have a work permit as a nurse but somehow she gets employed by the company that owns the oil rig and so forth. Good intentions in telling the story, but the script needed more work. Competent cinematography. On Prime.

A story of trauma, partly from the Balkans

A story of trauma, partly from the Balkans war, events of psychological damnation inflicted, parallel and explosive flames aboard an oil rig, each nurse one another and a little bag that connects them both.
