SIFF: Forgot This One


I watched this one at a special preview event and highly recommend it!

Paper Birds (Spain) - A
Screening on May 26, May 28, May 29

If you are allergic to emotional stories, heart-tugging turn of events, and orchestra music that swells on cue, don't see this film. Otherwise, don't miss it! The complex and layered plot is accentuated with refined acting, atmospheric cinematography, and snazzy performance numbers. There are moments and elements that remind me of "Schindler's List," "The Sound of Music," and "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" - not a bad class to be in. And the ending is perfect.
