Movie Haiku:Underside of life in modern London, where refugees from Europe, Asia & Africa live precarious lives as undocumented workers at the mercy of immigration authorities & unscrupulous bosses. The sexual exploitation of women is particularly graphic when seen through Tautou’s huge eyes, but the relatively “happy” ending is too slick.
