A beautiful film, filled with intense emotional highs and lows. Captivating story line, exquisite scenery, accompanied by orchestral music that pulls you in from the very beginning. Quality actors that draw you into their characters worlds, their love, joy, fears and pain. Unforgettable.

Oh my gawd. I stumbled on this and just adore the story. The acting was fantastic with the extreme scenery behind was amazing. Make sure you watch the extras. Recommend it to everyone. Its heart breaking, and thought provoking.

I'm amazed this film hasn't received a higher rating by viewers. It is the most morally profound film I have seen for many years. The performances are flawless. This is the art of cinema at its best.
