Sad,beautiful

I am a huge fan of Korean cinema,and this is one of my favourites!This movie touched me,and stayed with me long after it was over. It got me thinking,and any movie which does that is good. Early on as the story gets going,it sort of leads you to think maybe there's something dark,and fearful about the children. As the story slowly unfolds,and the truth reveals itself; it becomes so shocking,and incredulous,that shocks the faint of heart. My deeper thoughts on this movie was how the innocence of children,and their belief in anything. The well being of children when the most basic needs such as love,kindness,and respect is given to them,how healthy they become. And when those simple things are denied the outcome becomes sad. I am a mother,and perhaps that was why I was so affected,but I can't help but think how anyone would be affected. the story was told so beautifully that I was haunted long after it was over. I can honestly say I've never seen a movie quite like this,and still after a few years have not forgotten it.
