I was lucky enough to see this @ Berlin film festival.
It was one of the visually beautiful and moving films I saw!
It stood out for me through it's compelling subject matter and stunning landscapes.
The performances were extraordinary. They kids were so real and open in their performances. I got a glimpse into a culture I didn't know yet found something universal within it...
The audience around me were laughing and crying with me... I think we were all taken by the heart and warmth of this film.
This is the sort of film that needs to be seen. I hope it gets a release outside the festival circuit. I can't wait to see what the director (and writer) do next.
As you can see this film moved me...
