The movie said it was based on a true story - the story of a 6-year old kid doing what this kid did in this movie sounds fantastic.... BUT... the way they show life in an orphanage is very close to reality. They show a regular russian orphanage, not a great one they show-case to officials and not ones that are run by sadists or pedophiles.
This movie is a masterpiece.
Should have won the best Foreign Film Academy Award.
A true triumph of the Russian spirit - THIS is how you make a movie.

Esta es una de esas películas que nunca te saldrá de la cabeza ya que es tan real que uno se olvida de que son actores.
