I'm sure this film is out to depict life in a realistic fashion in the projects in Briton, but the lead character is so selfish and unlikeable it is almost impossible to watch. It is about a single mother with kids aged 10 to a newborn who is more concerned with getting a date than taking care of her children. Her behavior is unbelievably appalling as she feeds her kids sugar, then has them wait outside a bar as she goes on her 'date'. When she stuck her infant's pacifier in sugar and into its mouth, I just gave up there. A friend of mine is an ER doc and described this behavior of drug addicts with children as it quiets the kids, and it is so tragic. I was waiting for protective services to come, but they never do and you realize these four kids have no future because of the mother.
At the end the film's theme is that single mothers need a man to take care of them.
Although the filmmaker does have talent, I've never been a fan of films that offer little to no hope, so if you feel like being depressed, then run out and watch this. If not stay away.
