I liked the movie, it reminded me of our school systems from way back up here in Alaska. Children being taken from their homes and sent to boarding schools, either state run or church run. Many instances of abuse. If this movie doesn't pull at your heartstrings and bring a tear to your eyes, check your empathy levels. I cried, remembering being taken from my family at 6 years of age, along with my 5 year old brother, 4 year old sister and 3 year old brother.
