Maria Montessori

I absolutely loved this movie.

The two main actors -that play Maria Montessori and the mother of the child Tina- do such an amazing job, Oscar worthy in my opinion.

I loved getting to learn more abot the Montessori method, but I loved even more getting to know this brave woman and a feminist -she does not want to get married as she does not want to loose the relative freedom that she has and become a possession of her husband- in a time where men received all the praise, even when it was the woman who did most of the work. Maria Montessori did not even get paid for the method she developed at the institute of the man she was with before she got her own school.

Go see it you haven't yet!
