NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!

Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Orla Zuniga It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

mario_c Beautiful documentary! What initially called my attention to this musical documentary film was the Mirandês language. It's an ancient language that is spoken in a small region of Portugal, Miranda do Douro, and it was officially considered as a language (and not a dialect) only in 1999. Since then Portugal has officially two languages and not just one, in spite of Mirandês is only spoken by a few number of people in a restricted area (and all of them also speak Portuguese, of course).That said I must refer I had a pleasant surprise watching this documentary: first, because it portrays very well the Portuguese cultural heritage - more precisely about Miranda do Douro – with folk music performances, nice shots of landscaping and villages of that region, the people with their traditions, and even the animals, typical of that region, like the Vaca Mirandesa (a specific genre of cow). The "second part" of the surprise came from the main singer of this documentary, Catarina Wallenstein, and mostly because she's not a professional singer but an actress. She has a sweet and melodic voice that I hadn't had the pleasure to meet so far!:) And she also had to learn Mirandês to do this role… Good job Catarina! And, of course: good job João Botelho!
