This movie is one of those that goes straight to your heart! I had the chance to watch it when I was a young girl and it remained with me since then. As it already have been said its about genuine connection between two people no matter what the circumstances are; it teaches you about patience and faith! I read the other 3 reviews and it seems that it affected other people in similar way! I searched the movie for years and now I finally found it! In my opinion it deserves to be more publicized and I definitely recommend you to see it! If you feel any kind of repulsion about the fact that an older man could be feeling attracted to a 12 year old girl you clearly missed the point so please keep an open mind!
