“TRAVELING” is a timeless masterpiece that tells the story of hopelessness in the face of adversity.
This film is truly outstanding.

Drives home the emotional effect of loss of life through insecurity, domestically. A good watch overall.

It’s a very touching thing when a tragedy like this happens. The tragedy was well interpreted. I salute the team

Interesting, although I believe that a more urgent energy would’ve been infused into the story if IT was told through the girl’s POV. THE GIRL, A PHONE, AND HER FATHER’S PHONE. IN THE HOUSE. GET IT? THIS WOULD SET OFF A SLOW BURN BETWEEN THE GIRL DESPERATELY LOOKING FOR ANSWERS AND A MOTHER DEALING WITH A RIOT OF EMOTIONS AND INTENTIONS. ANYWAY, IT’S BEEN WRITTEN ALREADY. SO LET IT BE . BUT THIS THING SCREENS LIKE A STORY FROM A THINKING MAN’S filmmaker. WHAT I MEANT BY THE NOT-NOLLYWOOD. I’LL KEEP MY EYES ON YOU.
