Sensitive, Beautiful & True to the core
30 May 2023
A simple tale- of kids, their struggling parents, a sincere teacher, and of the harsh realities of a make shift rail-road community. The story is close to life and brings out the best in the characters, despite poverty and inequities of rural life. It captures the wonder and the joy of growing up with friends. Ikal, the child, is brought back to the school as if by fate, where he had all this amazing time; The school needs him. He also meets his childhood love - and effortlessly slips into his new role as a teacher - something he always wanted to do- inspired by his late teacher Ms Georgina.

The unique thing about the movie is- it captures childhood without any hype. It makes no contrived effort to lead the story to a good end. Above all, it inspires the viewer to see GOOD in people and circumstances.

Inspiring Movie.
