There were no false notes in this movie. From the depths of their separate grief, a devastated Algerian refugee, mourning the loss of his own family, shepherds a classroom of fifth-graders through the winter and into the spring. Amazingly, this is not a dark and depressing movie, but a thoughtful and sweet one. This is a movie about the redemptive power of kindness.
Pros well paced, great story, great actors, honest, sweet, full of love
