To me, this movie is perfection.

For having a relatively low budget, the film's style and overall art direction are immensely impressive.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

a special love story. or, more comfortable, a story of friendship. because the love is more intense, seductive, powerful, remembering fado. a film about small things. old truths. about the need of the other, about a sort of sentimental link who seems ignored by too many, about need to trust, about past and present and roots and hope. more than a great film, it is a necessary one. for see you again, in the right light. an old lady. a young man. and the trust, few cigarettes, a book and new/old beginnings. short, fado.

History: simple, modern and adjusted to reality. It is well demonstrated that the support and affection can do for someone abandoned and the need to show you the way.Lighting: Superb. Breaks with the traditional lighting of the Portuguese movies, where everything is always too dark and misfit.Sound: it is finally possible to clearly hear the speeches of the actors. In Portuguese films, traditionally the sound effects stifle the speech of actors. Usually to see Portuguese films, if available subtitles, I see with subtitles. This film is not necessary.I highly recommend this movie.

Like other users said, don't usually watch Portuguese cinema (not there is a lot of it..) but had a lovely evening watching this one. Great cast with consistent good performance. If you let it it will take you in an emotional journey, make you laugh and cry. And if it makes you feel things isn't it a success? I would say so! Fair enough, might be a simple predictable story with the typical happy"ish" ending, but what's wrong with it? Restores you faith in mankind, you end the movie feeling good and reflect on the fact that love and care comes in all sorts of shapes and unpredictable situations. On a last note, and as expected, you can see the film didn't have the millionaire budget like Hollywood does but, even so, kudos to everyone that put it together for the brilliant job.

I normally don't go out and watch Portuguese films, but this one caught my attention... And THANK GOD I'VE SEEN IT!! No, it's not a love story between and old woman and a kid, like the trailer suggests... It's a friendship story, and it's one of the most beautiful stories I've seen in my life! The music is good, suitable for the movie, and you kinda feel different stuff along the way... You can feel the pain and the struggle of an old lady dealing with loneliness and her husband's death, but still have lots and lots of love to give... Most of all, you can see her strength... And then you can watch the life of a kid, who's got no love from anyone, who gets beaten up the his father, forgot by his mother, and finds in the old lady some comfort and care... Overall, it's a beautiful movie, and really worth your time! Definitely GO and GIVE IT A TRY!
