Reading some negative reviews here, I even had doubts about the competence of director Alice Rohrwacher. As always I go and check with my own eyes. I'm surprised by the quality of this short! In a part of the plot we heard on the radio that those children are in the period of the Second World War, this already left me thinking at some point the peace and tranquility of (that) place changed drastically, but it is not this point that the director who told us Show. One of the points that caught my attention is the religious culture of the place, which is shown by the apparition of a passionate lady and, at the same time, the indoctrination of the church. Another criticism that was very clear in my opinion was hypocrisy about the real meaning of the coming of the baby Jesus, because the nuns in a part of Longa are extremely cold, insensitive and cruel with the children of the orphan who yearned so much for Christmas day. In short, a well-directed film with good photography where I wanted to follow the story of those cute and innocent children more.
