I hate to say im not much of a diverse movie type of person. I wouldnt normally choose a international film. Especially one with subtitiles. But, this film was amazing. I have mixed feelings because it was a great film yet the sheer amount of hurt and pain and just plain mistreatment of those children. And to know this actually happened. The part for me is that anchild would rather have died and took his abuser with him than live knowing he was not punished. I watched the film earlier today and am still thinking about it hours later. Amazing and sad.

I agree this film was amazing. Although I though it was hard to watch those abuse scenes, I appreciate that the filmmaker did not shy away from how disgusting it was and forced the audience the see it for what it was. I died a little inside after watching the film but I definitely don't regret watching it and hope more people view it.

This was a well made movie. It went a bit farther then a movie in the states would of gone, yet you felt the pain that the children went through. I cried when the youngest girl was on the stand. I also saw a post saying negative remarks on the lead actor, but I think he did a great job! Dealing and caring for these children would give you an empty feeling that I saw in his eyes.
