„You carry me" is an absolute breathtaking movie with a tremendous storyline that will keep you interested all the way through. Skillfully made and written intelligent. You don't need tons of special effects to create an unique movie.The acting is great, the story is powerful and intense . Three separate life stories, each so unique, but also related with the main question trough the movie: "when will YOU change?" The film has great impact on how we think about everyday situations. At first we may judge some presented situations on the screen but the film shows us that everyone could relate to those situations. It shows us that life is not black and white and that is often unpredictable.

Ivona, thank you for making this masterpiece and for raising Croatian cinematography on a higher level. I never write reviews but this time, I had to. Don't miss this movie!

At the beginning, there is a chaos. Then main characters start to appear, each with her or his unique life story. They are tender,funny, tragic or brutal.Some stories are connected, some not. As their lives move on in concentric circles,we get involved,take sides, shed tears or laugh. The strongest character for me is Natasa,women who is about to lose everything and yet believes that we carry each other, help each other because this is what life is about. All actors are good, but Natasa Dorcic brings more of herself into her role.It is one of these cases when you have a feeling that the actor is not acting. This is a first feature film from a young Croatian director Ivona Juka. Yet, it is profound film that will make you forget prejudices towards the country and cinematography that you do not know - providing you have any.

I have to admit, I'm not into films with subtitles, but I'm glad I saw this one. My friend read about it so we went to see it. I was a bit skeptical. But at the end it really turned out great. I's a bit over 2 hours but the story flows very easily so the time flew. I even forgot about the subtitles (and that's not happening on a regular basis :) ) Both the director and the producers are women, but I would never describe it as a chick movie. Far from that. It has an artistic touch that has no gender. You ether feel it or not. I almost sensed all that rocks falling over me. I like the way 3 stories interconnect, but still remain apart. And I like pancakes, as well. hahaha. You will just have to see it for your own.

„You Carry Me" interlace perfectly three histories of three different characters that are deeply marked by their fathers. You could see the three histories in different moments, like three short films, but the way in that they are included in only one feature film gives to this one more strength and it produces that during the two hours and half of film is not boring and it doesn't look like if it's too long. In all the film, this one makes you feel from happiness to sadness for what the characters lives but too hope and hate for what they make and think in different situations.

This film is similar to „De tu ventana a la mía" of Paula Ortiz, in both we find three histories about three women fighters but in the case of „You Carry Me" these womens aren't only in one situation that they have to fight but also they have to learn to coexist with their respectively fathers that, in one or other way and in different moment of the life, they are going to mark their lives.

In conclusion, „You Carry Me" is a great film that i recommend to all the fans of drama films, even if you don't like this kind of film like me, i recommend you this film because this could surprise you.

I really liked it. Although my first thought was it is rather long, I read some great critics on several of my favorite sites so I decided to give it a try. 155 minutes just passed by without me noticing it. It is not heart-braking drama with cheesy happy end. It has a kind of happy end, but in a rather realistic way. It's a movie you have to think about, where you put yourself in someone's else's shoes. It speaks about the need to be loved as we are, but at the same time we want to change the others, not willing to change ourselves. Really worth seeing.
