This was a very nice film for me to watch, surprisingly. Since I've never really heard anything ever about Malta, it was cool and new to see a film where it took place in. I also like how it wasn't a touristy vacation movie, it was a serious film that was very similar to a documentary. It gave me a very on depth view of what Malta was like and how the country is doing. Some things I liked about the movie were the camera angles. I felt like the directors really went the extra mile in that aspect. I really liked how when the boat exploded, the camera was underwater and you saw the explosion from underneath the surface, and then the dad dove in the water. I also liked the scene where the camera was facing the junk raft and the survivors from underwater as the turtle swam by. Another cool angle was the scene where it was raining and the camera was facing down at Theo and his dad as they were trying to catch the water. There were a lot of sad scenes also though, something I'm not really a fan of. For example, the scene where Musa died, the scene where Theo and his dad were trying to catch the rain, and the scene where they find Simon, but he can't find Theo, and then the camera goes to the underwater shot of his body sinking.
