| Comments |
Balibo is a tragic and powerful film at the same time. It gives us the insight of what happened in East Timor and what a nightmare that those five young journalists had to experience. The film create a suspense emotion to the audience with every scene between the journalists and the Indonesian soldiers. The film also gives us the audience Roger East's point of view and how determined he was to conclude the mystery of those five young journalists. It is a deeply moving and dramatic but also intense at the same time |
