I have been learning French on the really good online course for the last seven months, it is very good. As an addition to the language course I try to see at least one French movie per week.
I watched the movie Pupille / In safe hands ... I loved it. I have never seen a story about an adoption portrayed so beautifully.
I loved one sentence from the movie so much. The social worker said: "I don't find kids for hurting parents. I find the best possible parents for kids in difficulties.".
This movie made me realize... how hurt I was when we stopped with all the infertility treatments. And how many years had to pass before I found peace in my heart again. And when I found that peace, I am way too old to adopt (not that this is in my/our plans now).
I recommend the movie.
It sounds lovely! Watching foreign language movies is such a good way to learn languages. Thanks for reminding me! (I really should be using this time to brush up on my language skills, in the hope that I will be able to travel again in my lifetime!)
ReplyDeleteI loved this movie. It is very very authentic and as you say really portrays adoption beautifully.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to discussing it with you in French ;)
Wow, that preview was really powerful. I bet the movie is really good, but I don't think I can watch it yet... I'm surprised how many different emotions just the preview stirred up. It looks really well done though. <3
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome that you're learning French! I love how you know so many languages.
