Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.

Glimmerubro It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

Maleeha Vincent It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

denpolites a couple (lesbian, but I don't't think that this fact is essential) returning from holidays discovers an illegal immigrant in their car. The story doesn't really matters, the ideas are to be mentioned. The one is a rich, factory owner, the other is a poor worker. Curiously enough is the rich lady who treats the immigrant well and with compassion. But as the story evolves we clearly see that the other woman has a more lot in common with the boy. I think that the key phrase is what is said at the end of the film. 'You have the luxury to be nice!' Eventually the lesbian theme distracts a little from the true content of the film, although there is no explicit sex. The social and political message is subtle but strong. The ruling class has the power to handle the life of the others, although it seems that cares. The reaction of the boy is well understood, not violent as it should be. the clash of civilizations is a little bit naive, he just cannot understand the lesbian relationship, but anyway it exists. The acting is not bad, and I think that the boy is superb. In total is a very interesting film, that anybody could enjoy, without much effort.

Rob A beautifully filmed story about trust and the strains that out-of-the-blue events can place on it.Its pace is humdrum, the boy is emotionally needy and inexperienced and the two women have some differences they haven't yet come to terms with as a couple. The three main characters are totally believable, vulnerable and engaging - I couldn't help but feel empathy for all of them. I really didn't notice if there were mistakes in the background, the story about the three of them had me captivated. I thoroughly enjoyed this film.

schifezzuole The movie has a storyline that does not work, you soon lose interest, it is full of stupid mistakes (e.g. since when do border guards in Tunisia speak Italian?) and it is truly badly acted. Many - supposedly - dramatic moments are acted in a way that makes them pathetic and laughable. The worst things of all is that it tries hard to have a intellectual/ social/ political message when at the end it is only a rather stereotypical story of lesbian love and meeting of different cultures. There is nothing really interesting in this film. Another silly Italian movie that is made solely with (Italian and European) taxpayers' money...

maisonland The film "Shelter" by Marco S. Puccioni is a film that exhibits the personal and interpersonal relationship between two women (who happen to be lovers) and the involvement of an illegal immigrant who enters both of their lives only to demonstrate and unfold by chance all the problems between the two protagonists.The relationship between the two women seems to deteriorate at the beginning of the film. Anna, discovers Anis and chooses not to tell her lover, Mara. Anna assumes all the responsibility or power in her decision not to tell Mara. This perfectly foreshadows the lost of trust and hope between Anna and Mara..However, the young boy, Anis is used as a pawn, between the two women to use at their disposal in order to display power. Is this a subconscious statement made by Mr. Puccioni concerning the West's problems with the South?But we obviously see the class differences from Anna to Mara and from Mara to Anis. At some point, all three people need each other in order to exist and change, but at the expense of whom?
