Well worth the watch.

Rating: 8/10 (10 October 2013)

A sweet, melancholy tale of sibling love. My 12 year old has vowed to never see it again, (for reasons that would give away plot points) but I am sure she will come around when she matures a bit more. This is not a lighthearted film to watch and then forget about. This film will pull many different emotions out of the watcher. The fear and panic when your village is bombed. The bickering between siblings that have a sense of normalcy even during war situations. This movie shows the harsher side of the battle that happens to the people at home, struggling to survive bombings, lack of sustenance, and poor medical support.
A sobering, thought provoking film.
