Film Reviews by AA

The most amazing and powerful movie. Your heart is with this couple every step of the way to achieve their dream. Their courage and dogged perseverance is just staggering and the kindness and care they exude both to each other but to the landscape they are trying to revive is really moving. The power in this movie is in showing how we can live with animals and all kinds of tiny creatures in a symbiosis if only we trust the natural processes of Mother Earth.

The beauty of the landscape, once their work bears fruit, is breath-taking.

Prepare to be totally mesmerised and to fall in love, with a pig no less.

The subject matter is far too adult for very young children and I think that should be said before they say it is for children. I was completely unprepared for the traumas that the little children in the film go through.

To start off with a drunk, abusive and then dead mother does not make for good viewing for sensitive children.

However, it is well done and ultimately delightful, once past that hurdle.

I would recommend they be at least over 7.
