a love letter to humanity

This makes me so proud to be Greek , so proud to be represented by this woman's journey for us ...the younger generations I am deeply touched by this film I felt it restored my faith in humanity ... Thats what i felt when i watched it.

I really recommend it to all young people.

A celebration of life

The film is a celebration of life. Really unexpected from such a young filmmaker. First time director if I read this correctly. This is her first feature?! I am impressed. It's quite unusual to watch so much appreciation for the '' good in people'' and what really matters in life.

An insightful glimpse into the meaning of life but also into the political and social climate during WW2.

Narrated by the filmmaker with a very special "Mid Atlantic" accent. I found out that it was the Hollywood film's accent of that era. A must see, especially for younger people around the world.

A strong piece of cinema

To my delight ...these stories are so wonderfully filmed. The filmmaker shows bravery and kindness. Very powerful moments. Chilling moments. Some of the finest archival footage that's ever been put in a movie. I thought i have seen everything and this is a surprise. A thought provoking cinematic experience with heart warming twists and hopeful messages .I recommend it for the reality it brings .A must watch ...by everyone .
