    BEST MOVIE I've seen in a looong time. It definitely evoked a lot of emotion and some tears. Incredible acting by young De Roma and very interesting storyline.

    Quite a beautiful, touching story about love, family and music. :)

    If there's one thing I cannot stand in a movie, it is when script-writers take nonsensical shortcuts to avoid dealing with a plot-hole, such as in this hilariously stupid story of a deaf mute who comes to realise that she can communicate through the medium of song, yes SONG- she ...( read more)even gets kidnapped at one point and sings 'please let me go, I'm just a little girl' which was probably the highlight of the movie for me. If you're going to take such a dumb idea, you at least need to give it a good story and a filled out plot- you cannot give a character the line 'she's here, I feel it' just because you can't be bothered of thinking up a logical way for a mother to find her daughter in a massive crowd of people. Truly ridiculous, but kind of funny for that reason, and the little girl is pretty fun to watch as well...
