So 'It Wasn't God's Will' is kind of an interesting piece, not really mainstream but has its own vibe. The atmosphere is quite somber, reflecting the weight of war through a young boy’s perspective. Ramiro's journey is touching—he leaves for war with this heavy heart and comes back to find everything's changed. The pacing is steady, making you feel the lost time and the distance from Laurinda, who is really the anchor of his emotional turmoil.
