  • what si the soundtrack?

  • What a beautiful moment shared by two people from different stations in life. This brought immediate tears to my eyes and gave me goose bumps when I found out what the gentlemen in the suit re-wrote on the sign. I wonder if he thought this could be me one day? Or, that he was so thankful for what he had that he wanted to share it with someone in need. It was beautiful moment shared by two men who are complete strangers. I wish I could see more compassion like this in our world.

  • This short movie is the essents of a romanian film called Filantropica: A baging had hwo doesn't say a story will never get anything. What mr nice guy did he applied very good the marketing technique, for the old blind man not to seat there for nothing. Very good congrats.

  • If you become blind and homeless all of a sudden what would you do if you need to make a sign??? Duh...

  • great short film on the power of copyrighting.

  • That was amazing. What a beautiful way to get the message of empathy across! I had no idea where it was going until the end, and now I'm writing my comment through tears. Thanks for posting. I hope everyone can 'see' this beautiful day and appreciate and show love for those around who may not.

  • What is the song on this called?

  • Glass half full or half empty? It's a film to make you open your eyes and see the beauties that every day life will bring to you.

  • i think it makes ppl wan to give more compassion to the less fortunate. The 2nd message is the one which left an impact on us, or me, n it makes me ashamed that sometimes i would doubt these people's credibility.

  • Dunno y ppl giving you thumbs down. Good point/s

  • Wow! Powerful testament to the ability to change a few words and change someone's life.

  • God made everyday a beautiful day. Some cannot see them because the are BLIND BY CHOICE, not by chance or sickness. Look for the beautiful days and you will find many.

  • @STLouisMissionary

    Nah, this was filmed in my town Tampico, Mexico, most days suck, the only beauty you can find in the day in chilly mornings.

  • Awesome. Makes me realise just how many 'beautiful days' I also don't see!

  • Wow what a great video.. The power of copy writing.

  • nice great idea and great way of thinking ...awesome.

  • today is your beautiful today...everyday os your beautiful day... all you have to do is live it...

  • Wonderful.

  • With a stroke of the pen, a stranger transforms the afternoon for another man in this emotionally stirring film by Alonso Alvarez Barreda. The winner of the short film online competition at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival, Story of a Sign has since become a regular feature of Mexico's national television programming.

  • I don't know why, but this beautiful piece brings tears to my eyes...thanks for making it and posting it.

  • I don't know why, but this beautiful piece brings tears to my eyes...thanks for making and posting.
