Superbly performed drama about two very different brothers dealing with a critical healthy issue. Director Golino deeply engaging aesthetic investigates family values and the way we live nowadays.

The relationship of the two brothers, how cute, perfect, despite not "accepting", in need they had to unite, a light film, portraying a heavy theme, cancer, family, homoaffective prejudice, pains and loves ... The slow pace gives a discouraged, rare humor, like the scene of the hiccup and the old Bosnian, the fish that falls from the sky, and in the final moments of drama, I lacked empathy, although the scene of the birds in flight was beautiful...

Very well written and acted and very convincingly directed film by Valeria Golina. It is a beautiful bitter sweet humorously written little script. Both actors are excellent.

One brother is successful, healthy and life is good . Another is not so lucky . He is facing serious life's challenges. The brothers were never too close, yet, they now face walking that difficult path together. How each brother would handle the journey and the challenge? Guilt, blame, resentment, anger, judgements- no one escapes it. I recommend you watch it.
