Must admit I totally fell for the award winning status. Tribeca and Vancouver is pretty impressive. Now I'm trying to figure out how this mildly entertaining film managed to achieve that. Less than engaging characters. Muddled plot. Cows? A story that has been told so many times before. Awkward story telling style - at times I felt confused about time line and reasoning. In the end it seems marketing somehow managed to turn this rather dull story into something you want to see but in the end could have skipped with not missing much. Sorry I wanted to like it and found it entertaining but certainly not a great "award winning" film.

A fun film to watch! Great acting and plot moves along with twists and turns. Wanda is caught between in fighting family members and her own family over what to do with her unexpected new born. Even the ending is unexpected.

I enjoyed watching this film. It was a little drawn out but had some good twists and great acting. I sat through it without turning it off. That is a win in my book! It was funny and sad. My favorite part of the film is about midway through, so make sure you watch that long so that you know what I'm talking about. There's a lot of underlying messages about class, fertility, womanhood, and manhood. The setting is absolutely beautiful and the color is amazing. They did a great job with the sound as well, especially in the scenes with anything bird related. Some of the wide-angle shots are stunning.
