Just beautiful... ..nothing much happens and it is the quietness of this film (particularly compared to life with my own children!) that strikes you. The sense that here is a truly inspirational teacher, doing an excellent job quietly, calmly and with great love for the children builds throughout the film. Absorbing and wonderful..the patience of a dedicated documentary maker pays off.
European film at its very best What a truly wonderful film: a gentle and reflective documentary about a rural school, its teacher and children in the rolling beauty of the French Auverne. Beautiful "fly on the wall" showing the depth in everyday life. Hollywood could learn a great deal from European flim making like this.
This is a rare gem of a movie. The film is simply magic, and reveals to us both the world of feelings in the small child, and how a loving teatcher is able to give each child full attention and the tuition every child deserves to get in school. It is a must for every teacher and parent in the world.
If this film only had If this film only had - to add to it's feel of melancholy, the music of Yann Tiersen, say, 'Summer 78' - then it would, i believe, be the best filmatic experience ever. yousef
