Very well done.

I gave this such a high rating as I really want people to watch it. It is brilliantly made, never over the top or 'in your face', just beautifully put together. I love that it was made over many years, and I can imagine how difficult it must have been to get it right, with so much material.

The story will stir up all your emotions over the episodes and whatever state it leaves you, you will know that you have watched something pure and beautiful.
