Very good documentary
21 March 2004
Very interesting way of presenting the way education is given in rural France. In fact, it's probably a way of teaching that's on the way of extinction. Because it doesn't really reflect the reality of the school system of today. But it's still a good movie for the humanity that transpires from it. And it make us think about our own education system and its flaws. More than teachers, we need life educators. People who will show kids the beauty of life. Who will show them to open their eyes and see the beauty that surrounds them, to smell life, to hear all of nature's sounds, to feel with their hands life and to taste what's good in life. The movie is full of a sentimentalism that wins us over. That's ok, we need that some times.

Out of 100, I gave it 84. That's good for *** out of ****.

Seen in Toronto, at the Cineplex Odeon Carleton Cinemas, on February 23rd, 2003.
