La scuola sui binari

This film portrayes life in a simple, realistic and moving way.

It is a beautiful story about the importance of teaching, and it develops without oversensitive tricks.

It might seem simple but it is this simplicity which makes it realistic and captivating.

In the movie there are deaths and difficulties which are part of real life, and it shows how characters adapt and deal with life without heroic events.

What is heroic is, as Mrs. Georgina says, "life a good life", and I ended up crying at the end, with some characters leading a good life, others dying too young, and others having the courage to change and do something meaningful.

Highly recommeded, specially if you can see it in the original Spanish version.
