By Randi Hamm
I never do reviews online, leaving them for people who actually care about reviews, but this movie deserves it. While absolutely heart-breaking, it was one of the most beautiful movies I have seen in a long time. And the music: spot on. As a native Alabaman now living in Brooklyn (which has a surprisingly strong bluegrass scene), I was wary of a Dutch movie featuring bluegrass music, but the actors had amazing voices and I found the music to be the backbone of this very hauntingly sad film.

By Tommy Dooley
This is the official Belgian entry for the 2014 Oscars best foreign language film and after seeing it I can see why. We meet Didier and Elise they sort of fall for each other at first sight. He invites her to come see his band, who are a Bluegrass outfit and to say they are excellent is a massive understatement.They move to his cowboy house and start a truly moving love affair which sees her getting pregnant and joining the band who sing American music like they were born to it. Then tragedy strikes and their daughter is diagnosed with cancer. The band have become part of the fabric of all three of the family's lives and as the pressure builds so everything they have in life and love gets called into question. The story is told in a non linear narrative in that it jumps around from time frame to time frame. Each time it does this a little more of the story is revealed - slowly building the full picture. The music is the glue that links the scenes as are the tattoos that Elise's gets done as a permanent reminder of her life and loves for all to see.To cal this excellent is only half the story; apart from being moving, beautifully acted and filmed it also tells a story with a purpose that includes the lack of stem cell research and the hopelessness that is brought about by a parents worse fear. It unfolds in such a way that you would begrudge missing a single second. It is in Flemish and English with very good sub titles and is probably one of the most moving films I have seen this year - I can only absolutely recommend this wonderful film.

By Mack E. Tan
The director takes a common story--two unconventional people fall in love, then are tested by tragedy--and rejuvenates it mostly by incorporating some of the best bluegrass music I've ever heard. And bluegrass is not even my favorite genre of music but in this film, it is truly divine. The first time I watched this film, I did so for the story. The second time, it was more because I wanted to hear the music again.Apart from the music, the story works because of the two leads who are absolutely brilliant in their roles as Didier, a Belgian bluegrass musician in love with the idea of America, and Elise, a beautiful--and beautifully tattooed--tattoo artist and free spirit. They meet, fall in love, and Elise becomes the lead singer in Didier's bluegrass band. Once she's added to the band, they grow in popularity becoming quite successful. They have a child and then a tragedy begins to tear their lives apart.What I appreciated about the film: 1. Unlike Hollywood, the actors look like real people, teeth and all. I enjoy watching a film where the people don't look manufactured to perfection, where they look authentic. 2. The simple story delivers an unexpected double whammy & reminds us that our lives can change completely in an instant through no fault of our own. 3. The music is indeed divine and organically handled.In addition, I particularly enjoyed the tongue-lashing Didier unloads on George Bush. Some critics have panned that part of the film, observing that it detracts from the story. I think it pays off Didier's disillusionment in America, a place he starts off romanticizing about as a country of dreamers, then ends despising as cruel and barbaric. It reflects the reality he's forced to confront in his life at the end of the film.
