Throughout the film we see how Theo tries to get Kee and her baby to safety while trying to hide her from a group of people that want Kee's baby. 

THIS IS AN ABSOLUTELY AMAZING FILM!! The cinematography is extraordinary! Such amazing long takes, we all know I love long takes! The long take in the car, fucking amazing!!!!! This is how it was made if you are all wondering, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjNk-nxHjfM&feature=player_embedded, I cant even explain how amazing so watch it! It's a long take all inside of a car. At the end of the scene Theo gets out of the car and so does the camera, following him out of the car. It is mind blowing, I literally watched that scene twice while watching the film. It is amazing!! There was also another long take at the beginning, which was also amazing! The whole film is full of long takes that are amazing!!! I also loved how natural light was used in most of the scenes. Gave the perfect feel. 

THIS IS A MUST SEE FILM!!!!!! GO WATCH IT!!
