Nice story development
What I really liked was the attention to detail in the styling. I felt it accurately matched the time period and they even went as far as to darken the skin tones of the characters so as to reflect the harsh conditions of rural farming.It's a story about perseverance towards achieving your own dream!
this is a story about perseverance towards achieving our own dream! this is a process of growth in life. i am very attracted with this kind of inspirational story that can lend us some strength and wisdom to muddle through our own path.
