    This was a very powerful movie. Showing both sides of foster care adoption! Not to mention when we invite the Lord and our friends and family into the hardships we go through - having a community can be really helpful during all the seasons of life. I really liked this movie!

    Amazing true story of strong community overcoming huge challenges related to the adoption of troubled children. It puts all of us to shame. As in many good causes now days you feel like we could do more, we are not helping as much as we should do. Good watch!

    A superb portrayal of the challenges of fostering and adoption, along with the rewards as well. I highly recommend this film. 95 children come into care each day in the UK and Ireland. This film makes you wonder what can be done to change those lives for the better.

    Wow! Just wow! This is a powerful story told with beautiful cinematics. No fancy or distracting CGI or unnecessary flashbacks or trickery. Just a heartfelt story told in such a way that you feel empathy and support for each character, every single one has depth and emotion, you feel the love of the foster parents, and the fear of the aopted children. My only wish was that there was more to how Donna managed to change the Reverend's mind on adoption, it seemed a little quick, I would have happily spent another 10-15 minutes in the cinema watching this as every single actor in the film was talented. I was captivated throughout. Even as someone who doesn't identify with religion I enjoyed this wholeheartedly, I'm shocked that many of the critic reviews (and their poor ratings) say this is only for people with faith, it is for people to see struggles, and how communities coming together and supporting makes a problem a lot easier to solve.

    Easily the best movie I have seen all year. As a parent of children adopted from the foster system, this is the best depiction of the trials, tribulations, and triumphs of adopting that I have yet seen. Very hard but very rewarding. Excellent film, excellent cause!
