Review of Give Me Liberty (2019) by Netflic — 05 Sep 2019
This is a movie about one day in a life of Vic, a medical van driver in Milwaukee.
Vic is of Russian origin. His duty is to take disabled people to their destination.
His problem is though that he has a big heart of gold and cannot say NO.
The movie is a mixture of different genres; it is simultaneously funny, sad, profound and a bit surreal.
Creators of the film employed a lot of non-professional actors, many of them disabled, who play themselves. There was not a single moment in the movie that felt fake.
Maybe because I am from former Soviet Union myself, I could relate to events in this film more than an average movie goer. But I think the movie is universal and very American deep inside. After all, United States is the country of immigrants.
People come to this country for better life, freedom, happiness, opportunities, you name it.
Watching this movie was quite an experience. It is a unique, thought-provoking film. Highly recommend.
