Best movie I've ever seen! Panoramic, meaningful, family friendly, kept me bawling. What's so amazing is that it was Filmed with the People of the Creeks, the Lower Nicola Indian Band near Merritt, BC. The entire cast is local and first time film performers. The Swiss director Nino Jacusso who spent seven months with them calls them 'real actors' as they are the real people. I cannot believe Sunshine O'Donovan is not an actress - her portrayal of everything is amazing, if they are 'real' actors, does that mean she is REALLY a gifted violin - the enchantment continues...

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

A delightful movie, uplifting and sad at times. The Creek First Nations people living in Canada's west have a lot to deal with. Watch this movie with tissues at the ready.
