Maria Montessori

I really enjoyed exploring the context of this movie. When I just started watching, I could not get the storyline. As I continued, my feelings were moved deeply and I wanted to learn more about the director and her motivation behind this film. As I read articles and watched interviews, I felt a strong connection to the whole situation that influenced the creation of this film.

I've been professionally involved with the Montessori movement for more than 15 years now, and for me, this method has always been about love for humanity. Besides, I myself was a child who did not get appropriate support from the adults in my environment to face the challenges that I was going through, in terms of my health and getting socialised just as I was.

I am deeply thankful to Lea for creating this piece of art, which I am sure will touch many hearts around the world. Parents, teachers, adults who remain sensitive to the needs of children and their own, will definitely appreciate this movie.
