Very moving; hard to watch the whole thing

Very moving; hard to watch the whole thing without a tear in your eye. The two main characters were very convincing.

A short little Finnish film. An ex-convict get's

A short little Finnish film. An ex-convict get's some sort of job at a blind priest's place. It reminds me of a cabin without any luxury or neighbours. Her job is to read letters to Jacob, letters with requests for prayers. It's lovely shot and sweet classical music lift's it as well. It tends to be boring but it short lenght and nice plot makes it very watchable non the less. A superb finnish makes it a good film. 7 out of 10 leaking roofs.

I liked this film a lot. I agree

I liked this film a lot. I agree with the review of it by Betsy Sharkey. I had toyed with writing one myself but I do not have the skill at this point to do it justice. Sharkey's review speaks to how I feel about it.
