A true story and also based on a book named two hemispheres. This emotional drama is based on a Mexican couple who is determined to help their son who has cerebral palsy .
With all debt and high risk journey they take their son Lucca to India (bangalore) for a experimental treatment.

The family faces so many challenges like money, travel, treatment issues, their jobs etc but they never give up and always had faith that things will be fine and there is always hope ,always light and always love A very emotional and inspiring movie .the main actors have played the role with so much intensity especially the mothers character played by Barbara Mori A must watch ..highly recommend everyone to watch this movie.

All those who get emotional and cry during tear jerkers and sentimental movies will like this movie too. So they are advised to get their box of tissues and settle down.
The movie is based on the memoirs of some years back of the parents of a child afflicted with cerebral palsy who are told that there is no cure for the disease in Mexico. They then travel from Mexico to India to get their son treated after they hear about this miracle cure in India though still at an experimental stage.
All parents specially those who have been through similar experiences connected to family will relate immensely to the story and sequences. The movie keeps the emotions understated without going overboard and maybe that is its strength and highlight. It is moving, inspirational and all about the resilient nature of determined human spirit.
All credit is due to the director Mariana Chenillo and the two actors who play the parents ( Barbara Mori and Juan Pablo Medina ). The scenes are touching, heartwarming and realistic. Audiences will find themselves immersed in the emotional storyline. Most scenes relate to medical procedures in hospitals and recovery at home. Surprisingly the movie is not boring at any point and one remains absorbed throughout.

Absolutely Inspiring , shows how to believe in oneself and going beyond possibilities especially when it concerns family members and emotions.
What a journey. Unconditional love. What sacrifice. Single pointed focus...... the characters were so genuine... Everyone in the family played such a significant role and went that extra mile. Good human beings on the right path can definitely move mountains come what may.... The limitations of doctors, the politics, the spiritual strength everything fades away when it comes to once inner strength .
This can happen only and only by a mother and nonr other... do watch and see the change in you.
Wow !!!

Wow !!!
It's truly unfair that such a moving story was given such a mediocre film adaptation. The performances are atrocious at best, with no chemistry between the actors-everything feels stiff and painfully forced. The script has the depth and finesse of an average soap opera, filled with predictable dialogue and melodramatic clichés. Even the technical aspects are shockingly poor; at times, the background music drowns out the dialogue, making it hard to follow.
The storytelling is equally disjointed, as if the scenes were strung together with duct tape rather than flowing naturally. Emotional moments arrive not as an organic culmination of the narrative but as clumsy demands for tears. It's one of those films that doesn't just invite you to cry-it practically threatens you into it, making you feel guilty if you don't. A wasted opportunity for what could have been a truly powerful film.

A true story that will catapult your sprit to new hights. The movie not only shows the real moments as it happened but it recreates the emotions and feelings lived by Andres and Barbara.
Obviously is hard to express the anguish and stress lived every day and every night when you need to be a caretaker 24/7.
Mori and Molina portrait the real Barbara and Andres in a superb way. Bruno's character is just amazing but above all the director's tremendous job to take you across the journey of pain and generosity of not only the family but everyone else involved.
Never give up. That's the message of this story that will change the way you ever will feel when there is an imposible task in front of you Never ever give up Lucca has and will change many people's life.
