Jolly! Inspirational! Life-altering!

Rating: 9/10 (27 June 2014)

Life is not about circumstances, but about how you choose react to that!
In this Italian drama which delves into Holocaust, creators have very powerfully shown what a man can do in the gravest of all situations. Roberto is shown as a charming playful fellow who likes to live in his own fairy tale. At the same time, he is an opportunistic man and knows how to take advantage of a situation.
But what when all the odds are stake against him? Things he endear the most are doomed!
Roberto finds himself in a concentration camp along with his son and wife.
And here comes the attractive part of this entire film. Instead of revealing the harsh reality to his tender kid, he chooses to keep the kid in his fairy tale.
Luck favors the brave one!
Say it co-incidence or law of attraction, things turn out as he had promised to his son who gets a final ride on a large tank. But film ends in a melancholy.
