Why I give this film at 10

[gabbys_mommy · 10/10 · 29 October 2016]

I just saw this movie at the Heartland Film Fest. It is the most touching movie I've seen during this year's festival. The colors are so vibrant and the performances are very strong. The children are precious and beautiful. I enjoy the festival because there may be a chance to meet the talent behind each movie. After our viewing we got a question and answer session with the writer/director Mitra Sen. I appreciated hearing about the production and some of the cast. It takes courage and persistence to bring such a story to life. Please continue and I'll keep watching your films!

I feel privileged to have seen this film since it only shows at film festivals. If you get the opportunity to see this film please don't hesitate. There is more good in this world than bad and anyone can be redeemed!

Intense, gorgeous, inspirational

This is a gorgeous film, full of color and vitality. The actors are really good, and able to show so much believable emotion on their faces without overplaying it. The children add sweetness and innocence and humor. Although the plot focuses on pain and trauma, the overall effect is very uplifting and thought-provoking. I wish this was commercially available to stream and more people had exposure to its relevant message. I encourage anyone who has the opportunity to see this at a film festival to see this!
