Can’t wait to finally see this!!! Come show your support in New York!
The Lesson is a poignant and moving film. It is sparse and intense. Raymond Ma is perfect as the professor. He IS the professor. The mood draws the viewer deep into the experience. There is no separation between audience and story. This film is an award winner.
I am definitely gonna check it out in NY! And @Daniël Straum don’t you first have to see the film to call it an award winner!?
Lydia,geweldig dat je dit voor elkaar gekregen hebt.
Door een beperkt budget heb je toch een indrukwekkende
film geproduceerd.
This needs to be continued
and must be more then only one lesson
