true account of the 2004 tsunami - You will be on the edge of your seat

4 stars

06 Dec 2023

This film is based on a true story of the 2004 boxing day tsunami. It follows a family of five as they are unsuspectingly caught in the middle of this tragic natural disaster. Non-diagetic music and emotion captivate the audience through their story of survival, I was on the edge of my seat from the moment the tsunami wave ascended the shore to the emotional ending.
