After watching this movie it becomes virtually impossible to not scroll through your Facebook news feed and not see it all as trivial. It's hard to not see your life and the way you have been living it as trivial. I find it difficult to give this movie something as trivial as a rating, a 10/10. It captures something some real, so raw that it transcends such binary terms as good or bad. This "movie," rather, is beautiful. I feel like a spectator or tourist to this reality of life. To the pain and suffering, to the loss and sorrow. If these are the things that comprise our lives what drives us on? What drives those children in that remote village on? Is life truly worth fighting for? Are such minuscule moments of love and happiness worth the years of anguish that ensue when the very ones that are the causes of such love and happiness are taken from us? It all makes life fell so tedious. And yet it's those moments that make life matter. It's the tears that are testaments that life matters to us, even the most seemingly inconsequential life of a girl or boy half way around the world with AIDS. While a rating would be so inappropriately trivial I cannot help but to give the movie my highest regard.
