I would love to recommend you a very beautiful and moving film I watched two days ago in TV.

"I Am David" _http://www.iamdavidmovie.com/main_flash.html

An extraordinary family adventure, I AM DAVID follows a twelve year-old boy as he boldly escapes from an East European prison camp and makes an incredible personal journey to freedom. Fleeing with only a compass, half a loaf of bread and a sealed, secret letter he must carry across the continent, David cannot foresee the dramatic odyssey that awaits him. From stowing away on a ship bound for Italy, to facing his fears of the dangerous outside world, to the unexpected revelation of his true identity, David discovers for the first time the real meaning of courage, trust, laughter and hope.

Here's trailer on Youtube _http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5ZpX8kOPU8

I think this review from amazon is very accurate:

"This is a movie that is so full of the human spirit that you can't help but cry and be moved. This is a movie that didn't need gratuitous sex scenes, foul language and endless violence to make it amazing, just raw human emotion about a young boy who is trying to find life, and what else it has to offer than all he's know in the camp. I recommend this movie to anyone who want to watch a movie with their entire family!"


[David: Johannes, I want to escape. You said that if we weren't dead we could change things. But how do you know they're going to let us live?
Johannes: We don't.
David: Then we should leave while we still can.]
 
I watched the trailer, and I am looking forward to seeing the movie. It looks really heart-touching. Thank you for posting this :)
 
Thank you Darek for this recommendation. I just watched this film and it is touching. If it doesn't move you, check your pulse. Why can't all movies be made with this level of artistry and compassion? My faith in cinema has been restored.
