this film be self indulgent rubbish . watch this film if you merely want to hear spoken gaelic or enjoy the pleasant soundtrack . watch for any other reason and you will be disappoint . it should be charm but isn not it just irritate . the character be difficult to care about and the acting be poor . the story within the film be also charmless and sinister . i be expect a heartwarming family film but this also hold no appeal to my fourteen year old daughter . it be rarely that i can not see a film through to it conclusion but this one get the good of both of u . although the film be set in current time it have the look and feel of a cheap east european film make during the cold war . there isn not even enough in the way of beautiful scottish scenery and cinematography to redeem it . a real shame because a a film this be an embarrassment to scotland .
