The film might succeed as a travelogue were it not for writer-director Majmudar's treacly narration.
Unfortunately, not only Grace, but every major character in Majmudar's script exists to embody an idea rather than a person or personality, each uttering their point of view with an absolute, repetitive conviction that's the death of interesting drama.
Visually beautiful but sleepy.
A drama so undercooked and overbaked that only fans of Harlequin romance novels could possibly clutch it to their heaving bosoms.
