Beautifully acted and compelling for such a quiet film. It draws you in to the story because you develop a natural attachment to some otherwise unfamiliar characters. It avoids cliche and gets the viewer so up wrapped up with these wonderfully human characters that you really want to do something about what you've seen when you leave the theater. What more can you ask! It's film that means something, allows you to think, with excellent acting, a strong story, and compels action. If you are in fact so motivated the website tells you how to follow up. Don't let this - what they used to call 'sleeper' (meaning a film you might miss amidst the brouhaha of snazzier films) - don't let it slip past.
