I recently re-watched this film, and I was once again amazed. Directed by Philippe Falardeau, and released in 2011, the films plot lines focus on immigration, child development, grief, loss, and love, themes that remain all the more relevant in todays world. It was the winner of multiple awards including: winner of Academy of Canadian Cinema and Television Award for Best Screenplay. I often think that this would be a great resource to share with teens, as not only does the film have powerful message about the relationships we loose and create throughout our lives, but the cinematic style and quality of acting really makes the film all the more engaging.
