“Is it supposed to be inspiring and uplifting?”
I think it must be well made. I’ve read about it before, and as this article states it did win a prize at the film festival. The other thread I read was more about the fellow who made the movie. He is a big TV star in Mexico, but he’s become very religious, that is why he made this movie. And he is really very handsome, so that’s good too!
It’s very well made—it goes way beyond expectations, that’s why no one can adequately review it. See it once and you’ll want to see it again.
That aside, I hate reviews/articles that have to reveal plot details like this!
