    I laugh and i cry , i laugh then i cry , i laugh and i cry again and again and again.

    I almost never laugh at the movies, because i have such a good sense of hmour ,almost all the others jokes lokslame for me.AThis movie make me laugh so many times.I used to rather cry at the movies , but living in Romania , after the involutio from 1989 i reach the grade nothing make me cry.This movie make me cry like a baby.The screenplay is a masterpiece.Actors are brilliant.American movies in the last 40 years can't make a normal human been smile even if is tickled (except some sitcoms) about crying , they c'ant make movies with a little bit of dramatism , tears are excluded , and the spaniols make the people laughing out loud and crying like babyes in the same movies.Thas because spaniols make cinema and americans make commerce

    Deeply touched by this movie!

    Having my own health issues, seeing sport as a way to get through them, I have been deeply touched by this story. Beyond the triathlon idea, and beyond the multiple sclerosis, the feelings shared by the characters of the movie with the others make this a great movie. And as this is based on a true story, you have got to watch it!

    Such a positive film

    One of the most beautiful explications of multiple sclerosis on movie over created. The movie advocates the disease and all of the negative effects that it brings to the family and difficulties that causes to the life of the patient and the careers. The language is gentile, the set is perfect and all of the feelings are positive despite the seriousness of the disease. I felt totally inspired by Ramon, he offers inspiration, courage and gives strength not just for the MS survivors but to the general public as well. The producers and all of the participants in the movies should receive the most positive critiques as well not just by making story line of such a serious topic but for the decision to produce a movie on this disease which is quite rare in the movie industry. I believe all of the participants in the film should be proud by creation of a movie that will help MS survivors and make this disease visible to wider public. Most perfect part of the movie is that despite of the main topic, it tackled relations within the family and introduced Nino Bravo to the viewers. Music, dialogues, photography and costumes are extraordinary for Spanish movie. Dani Rovira is remarkable, perfect characterization of MS survivor, perfect actor, just perfect. Excellent movie...

    Great movie with sense of humor

    This is unexpectedly good movie. What I love about European movies is that end is not easily predictable. There is no happy end guaranteed, you are not sure what will happen until the very last minutes of the movie. Also, intelligent humor is something I appreciate. In this movie it is so well put with the rest of the, not so funny, story. Do not skip this one.

    A sensitive and thought-provoking film , very good directed , and being based on real life events.

    Based on the incredible and touching true story of a Spanish young with multiple sclerosis . A business man , Manolo : Dani Rovira , who has his woman pregnant : Alexandra Jimenez , undergoes a terrible illness : multiple sclerosis . As the hospital scanner gives him a sad diagnosis that disturbs his family , as we watch how it gradually wreaks havoc on the united group . At hospital he meets other sick people : Alba Riva , David Verdaguer , Bruno Bergonzini and befriend to them , most of them submitted to wheelchairs . Then , to better himself and overcome obstacles , as he is helped by his beloved wife and a grumpy old man who results to be his grizzled , father-in-law : Karra Errejalde , he is a fashioned man who grows medical marijuana and hides dark secrets . Then Manolo himself makes a bet , to finish a difficult Triathlon , an Iron-Man feat : 3,8 km swimming, 180 km cycling and 42 km running. And he was told that he could not make 100 metres. ¡ Everybody suffers an incurable and degenerative illness: Life ¡ . ¡ Giving up is not an option ¡

    This great picture involves deep drama, emotion , love story , family , human values and a provoking story about people who surmount their vital difficulties .This is a stirring and sensitive look at multiple sclerosis (MS) and , but ultimately attempts to construct family's unity and sense of love , friendship , to improve themselves , and belonging , too . The film is pretty good , but relies heavily on the relationships between husband-wife along with the father in law . Dani Rovira and Alexandra Jimenez deliver top-drawer interpretations as the enjoyable marriage whose lives go wrong when receive the fateful fate . Karra Elejalde gives a splendid as well as sympatheric acting as the angry widower , as usual , creating an awesome chemical with his son in law/Dani Rovira . Karra suggested Dani Rovira for the lead role when he was offered the project. Support cast is frankly excellent , such as : David Verdaguer , Clara Segura as Dra. Berta , Alba Ribas , Bruno Bergonzini , Andrés Velencoso and Maria de Medeiros who long years ago co-starred along with Karra Elejade : Airbag . Furthermore , the extras of the hospital scenes are, actually, real patients and real doctors from the Institut Guttman. Most of the extras of the Iron Man scenes are also actual athletes too.

    Xavi Gimenez cinematography is excellent creating an adequate environment , , he's expert on sombre photography as well as frightening and scary atmosphere ( Machinist , Transsiberian , Fragile , Intact , Nameless , The secret of Marrowbone ) but he has photographed spectacular and sunny films ( Agora, Libertador , La gran aventura de Mortadelo y Filemón) , too . Being shot on location in Tavertet, Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain (exteriors, top of the mountain) , Calella, Barcelona, (exteriors, Iron Man scenes) Parc Natural del Monseny, Barcelona, Creixell , Sant Just Desvern, Gualba, Barcelona, Catalonia, and Tarragona Catalonia, Spain .The picture was partly inspired from director Marcel Barrena , who wrote too , basing on real events .
