Review of Treeless Mountain (2009) by Juan D — 04 Oct 2009
The beauty some movies have can't be matched by any means. There are some films that just break your heart - and do so in a well-meant manner - if that is possible. Every single minute of this movie is infused by a kind of humanity you don't often see in cinema, and solely for that it deserves much praise.
The two little sisters manage to keep you at the edge of your seat, wondering about their fate, about the return of their mother, about the adventures they get into. Some things in this movie, like the fact that they believed their mother would return when their piggy was filled and they sold fried grasshoppers to make money or exchanged coins of value for less valuable change because they were more in numbers is just something you see once in a movie in all your life.
Beautiful cinema, even if it's not masterful.
