Its a beautiful and sad fairytale. I guess reality it's much worse. That is why it is predictable storytelling to give us hope and not to much despair.
Title says it all, my review for a 10 is because I have never seen any fim like this that shows you humanity is its worst and prime, does not matter about the CGI behind the baby, the acting is on par, foreign films is the next industry, look forward after watching this and do not look back to Hollywood(which is trash super-hero movies lately). what i do not understand is why the 3 Actresses that play Eva in this film did not get a nomination for their role nor an award.... saddens me deeply
I do not consider myself an expert to criticize a work like a movie, where so many people work, but if I am able to see or understand the message that is wanted to give the work and in this story, the message is simple, "No matter the condition with which you were born, it is not an excuse to dream and achieve something great "I know it is not easy, society is the factor that most debilitates a person, and we all know, but if someone manages to overcome those immense mountains, there will be nobody who can collapse it.
I didn't know what to expect from this movie which popped up on YouTube as I was searching for something to watch. I was amazed at the good script, quality acting and how touching the movie is. It does remind me of The Elephant Man and make me wonder why we treat someone differently or judge them or shun them because they look different. Such prejudice apparently also resides in children who most probably learn from the adults. We also see how inhumane the medical profession can be especially in the earlier era. It's also an inspirational movie as we see the main character grows to become self-sufficient and pursue her goals. Highly recommend this movie for all.
I Really liked this movie. All the emotions get touched throughout this
