Wonder (2017)
Based on R.J. Palacio’s New York Times bestseller, Wonder will pull at your heartstrings and might just leave you with a tear or two. This inspiring film tells the story of August “Auggie” Pullman (Jacob Tremblay), a young boy born with facial differences. Entering elementary school for the first time, Auggie bravely faces the challenges of fitting in, getting bullied, and learning to accept himself for who he is. His touching story gives us a timeless lesson on kindness, empathy, and embracing individuality.
I Am David (2004)
I Am David is a heartwarming tale that will restore anyone’s faith in humanity. After escaping from a Bulgarian Communist labor camp, twelve-year-old orphan David (Ben Tibber) embarks on a life-changing journey across Europe. All his possessions fit one sack: a compass, a loaf of bread, and a mysterious letter he is instructed to open when he reaches Denmark. What’s supposed to be a terrifying journey is made better with kind strangers who offer him aid along the way. And although David encounters harsh realities of the world – hunger, fear, violence – his unwavering hope and faith in humanity manage to inspire even the audience. I Am David is a remarkable story of courage and the enduring power of the human spirit.
August: Osage County (2013)
Up for some good ol’ family drama? Get ready for a dose as the strong-willed Weston women go head to head in August: Osage County. With a family tragedy forcing the three estranged sisters back to their Oklahoma home, they reluctantly reunite with their spiteful matriarch, Violet (Meryl Streep), who has been recently diagnosed with cancer. Barbara (Julia Roberts), Karen (Juliette Lewis), and Ivy (Julianne Nicholson) must deal with long-buried secrets, resentments, confrontations, and all-around chaos. Based on the Pulitzer and Tony-winning play by Tracy Letts, this dark comedy-drama will have you laughing one minute and crying the next.
The Impossible (2012)
J.A. Bayona’s heart-wrenching film, The Impossible, is a harrowing depiction of a family’s struggle against nature’s fury. What began as a peaceful Christmas holiday in Thailand turns into a nightmare when a devastating tsunami strikes, separating Maria (Naomi Watts) and Henry (Ewan McGregor) from their three young sons. Without knowing if the other is alive, Maria and Henry are forced to fight for survival amidst the chaos and destruction, hoping to bring their family back together. The Impossible is a gripping film based on the true story of the Belón-Álvarez family. It’s a powerful and emotional portrayal of human resilience and the enduring power of family.
