Humorous, but slow paced and how true?

SummaryThe gentle end of the refugee experience
Review
Well acted and beautifully photographed and well written - but at times a little pointlessly slow. Alright so they are in Limbo where time does pass slowly, but sometimes the photography of scenery seemed to delay the narrative.
It is gently funny, not laugh out loud, and comes across as somewhat truthful - although how many asylum seekers are billeted on a remote Scottish island rather than in detention centres with prison like condidtions.
