      Audience Member A touching tale of hope and redemption from the perspective of a talented youth with the potential to be more than she ever thought possible for herself. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member I have been waiting for what seems like forever to watch this film, and It truly did not disappoint. Earns a permanent place in my top movies list. Congrats to all those involved. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member The earnest attempt to represent a place we usually only see in travel brochures can only go so far in helping one to overlook the film's obvious flaws.
