Audience Member Hidden Gem. I loved it, the plot is that of an idealistic teacher trying to make a difference in the lives of spoiled kids, its an age-old story just in a new package. I loved the way they used a minimalist approach in the filming, very little dialogues are used and there are no wasted scenes, every frame had a meaning behind it. The only problem is by the end, the storytelling seemed a mixture of unrefined or one could say unrealistic approach, the vision is too utopian to ever work, still the romantic in me can't help but like it. PS: The movie ends with a message about SOS Children's Villages, so I did look them up, as of 2017, over 85,000 children and youths are raised in their centers.
