"This movie…. Whew! I cried so hard at this movie. The little girl that plays Ponette won a Best Actress award at Cannes IIRC at 4 yrs old. Unbelieavbly well acted in that fly-on-the-wall way of European films. It was so realistic… just really well done. Trigger warning for anyone who lost her/his mom as a child. "
