A delightfully surprising and inspiring gem

Rating: 10/10 (2 September 2016)

At the advice of a friend, and with a boring sounding plot-line, I was delightfully surprised - from start to finish. I never would have thought at film about a quadriplegic man, forming a friendship with an unusual caretaker of sorts, would remind me of the beauty of foreign cinema.
It is nuanced, witty, unpredictable and true artistic/creative expression. It is also quite humorous, adding lightness and hope to the situation at hand.
What the characters seem to lack in terms of life circumstances is certainly made up for, and carefully shown, in a new and inspiring light. It left me thinking about how different we all are, on the inside, and within relative contexts.
Absolutely a gem of a film; one of the best I've ever seen.
