I've read the book "Vallen" by Anne Provoost, so I was actually expecting the film to be worse than the book, as usual. But this was one of the films that was, I won't say better, but equally as good as the book. Everyone who has read the book will understand how good it must have been then. The actors were very convincing, the story, of course, was excellent and the music of Praga Khan was perfect! The movie is very realistic, maybe a little too realistic. It makes you think, and a movie that makes you think is becoming a rarity these days ;) The story's about racism, nazism , how easily you can influence people, and love. I got goosebumps several times, it's brought into picture so beautiful. The music fits perfect into the movie. (f.e. Falling by Praga Khan feat. Axelle Red and Rhythm by Praga Khan feat. Roos van Acker). Don't be surprised if you have to let a few tears! This film is worth a big 10, go see before it's too late people!

I had to read the book for school a couple of weeks ago and I really hated it. I thought, and still think that it was one of the worst books I've ever read. Then, yesterday my teacher Dutch told me that we would watch the movie in class. I wasn't really thrilled about it but it couldn't be worse than the book, right? And if it was, we still should have no lessons for two courses. The first that shocked me was the hot version of Lucas. Believe me, I had a totally different image in my mind. And it wasn't good. I think all of the performances were really great, especially Koen De Bouw. I also liked the fact that in the movie, there was a love story (and a very romantic one too). I mean, that was one of the coolest kissing scenes I've ever seen. I even cried at the end, in class! My friend was making fun of me but I couldn't help it! I've been talking about it all day en now I'm writing about it... Absolutely a great film!
Bring this movie back
