Wonderful character development!

Far from Perfect, Far from Terrible

An Exercise In Nonsense

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

This is a difficult film. Difficult to review, difficult to watch and difficult to convey everything of the experience to someone reading this, who has yet to see the film!These people suffer from Cystic fibrosis.It is not pretty. They know this. They want to show us what it is really like to have to live under such a difficult restriction as CP.You cannot watch this and not be affected by it, not be forced to look at yourself, your own humanity, your selfish ways, your supposed 'problems' etc. You are forced to look at them differently and with a new perspective. If you can sit through this film and NOT do any of those things then you really would have to be callous, emotionless and perhaps, thinking about it, just like many many people are when they are using the internet!Anyway, I urge you to watch this and it may be painful or difficult to do so.That really is the point. Force yourself to watch. there is nothing gory or frightening in the film, just the disfigured contorted bodies of these people and the laboured way in which they speak, which is disturbing to our ears. That is why you MUST make yourself watch.Give them the credit they deserve for even making the movie.It is a sad film and I will never forget it.

This film was too powerful for me to take all in one sitting. I had to break it into 3 segments on different nights to be able to take it all in.I urge you to watch this, to think about this, and to think again.It will make you consider what is truly important in this world.And for them..for them this IS the world, twenty-four hours a day, 365 days a year..for their entire lives.For us, we can turn off the movie, stop thinking about it..put it out of our mind..or can we? I will be thinking about this for a long time to come.
