this movie remind me of the theme in one hundred year of solitude . it deal with be isolate even though you have family . the movie have very touching theme and be focus on relationship between people . the end be especially touching and poetic and a it show how the one we think of a lonely may be the only one who can teach u to connect with others and have faith in humanity . the acting be wonderful . the mother eye exude such a deep sadness and yet so much love and patience . the old man be instantaneously lovable . even the dog do a wonderful job . the woman fiery personality be completely believable and and her lover be realistically a jerk . this movie have so much go for it and and it refresh to see a movie that touch on the distinctly human quality and both good and bad and and carry them across so realistically . the movie never get tire and and i always felt i be personally invest in the life of all the character . highly recommended .
