Roger Ebert said this movie, along with the Iran movie CHildren Of Heaven were perfect movies to introduce children to "art house" films. So often they are used to meaningless plot and not chactarter devleopment like the avengers. This is on a whole new level. They have to pay attention. But the rewards are wonderful.

I bought this movie about a decade ago on VHS by chance not knowing anything about it and immediately after watching it I went out and bought the dvd. I have borrowed it out several times throughout the years and afterwards good discussion always ensues. If you ever feel overwhelmed by circumstances this movie will give you a whole new perspective. I can not imagine anyone not being moved by this wonderful story

I usually don't like movies with subtitles because I have a hard time sitting there, paying close attention so I can read all of the words. But this was a nice movie with a simple plot and heartwarming feel. The girl that played the main character, the 13 year old "Teacher" was very good in the part. For a girl that age to play such a touching part is really nice. I think I would watch it again someday.

I found that it was a very good movie. I enjoyed it very much and found that all the people in the movie were not actors but regular people (be sure and read the credits after the movie.) The movie was also very informative. It is worth a re watch.
