The Tearsmith is nuanced and absolutely captivating - every sensitive aspect of which there are many is beautifully presented from the outset. Simone Baldasseroni and Caterina Ferioli are absolutely stunning. I was riveted to their every move. All the young cast shine and Nicky Passarella's character is someone we all want to spit on or slap and hope our daughters don't ever come across someone like that. As we meet each young person their auras of light or darkness are clearly portrayed.
This film is what may be aptly called 'perfectly imperfect' but the flaws like the broken crystal in the film fits with the imperfect and somewhat messy 'fairytale' that is being created. The power of courage and hope in the midst of brokenness is a central theme and when it flickers, invaded by darkness, we hold our breath to see if Nica and Rigel and all the children at 'the Grave' on their and somewhat disturbing and crooked path, will get their HEA.
What kind of superficial and unintelligent species wrote the low reviews? Reminds me of the sick and disgusting current behaviours we have seen in recent weeks at the universities - supporting absolute monsters - is that who wrote those brainless reviews? Is that the limited IQ of our up and coming generation? May the divine help us all if that is the case...... Meantime we breathe in hope when we have the pleasure to view artistry like this film portrays.
