  for the script, for the performance, for images, for message. for delicate ball of emotions. for the French language as cloth of miracle. and, in same time, for the crumbs of Coelho as seeds of a metamorphose. at first sigh, it is a common motivational movie, with few nuances of religious discourse. in fact, it is only a picture. a family and a boy. an stranger. expectation, fear, drops of hope. and the end as slash of spring rain. axis - presence of Tcheky Karyo, but is it enough ? so many messages about love, faith, trust, joy are present today. how important is a new speech ? not very. but in this case, not ordinaries ingredients are relevant. but the state of soul. the nuances, the light, the shadows. and the short moments of impression - in a special way, it can be my story.

  Under the appearance of a realistic Swedish drama lies a spiritual allegory. A serious, stupid accident causes Ernst to close himself and stop believing in anything. The life of the couple is suddenly invaded by chaos. The Guardian Angel or the Spirit now enters the scene. He speaks in a foreign language - love - which Cecilia immediately understands. But Ernst remains hardened in his grief, keeping a cold, seemingly rational vision. Only after drinking the last cup of suffering, manages to open his heart for love. And then the miracle happens: from a lethal coma, their child returns to life. Because life is not possible in the absence of love.
