Patience Watson One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
craig-216 Somehow simple truths and faith in God often get muddled with religion and politics, unforgiveness and bitterness, when we grow into adulthood, and we can't see clearly even though we may be fighting for what we perceive to be a just and righteous cause. In the real world victims do sometimes become the victomizers themselves. So how do we stop the cycle of violence that so many countries and peoples have experienced for centuries? Although this film doesn't pretend to have the answers, it does most creatively and dramatically ask the questions? At the end of the day, we are only responsible for one, and that one can make a difference if only in the life of another one. A must see little film (a directorial debut at that for Marion Comer) that cuts to the heart and soul of what do we really believe and what are we willing or not willing to do about it?
