Verdict on Little Pink House
Little Pink House is a drama following a woman leading a campaign to protect her home after a big corporation looks to take it from her. It shows the legal battle put in place and the wrong doings done toward the residents who face no choice.
This is an important drama and it showed the fight to change a law taken advantage of. It shows how people need to stand up for what is right when greed starts taking over. The movie tackles the subjects nobody would have fought for even if it does miss a little factor about the decision. We get wonderful performance who help get the message across.
