A fascinating movie less complex than it appears
Review date: 2008-07-03 Rating: 8 out of 10
A good movie well worth watching. All the same I am not sure that the Indian connection, with its beautiful and convincing footage, is actually particularly central to the plot. But a subtle movie about good and less good uses of power and its limitations that you will remember for some time. Jacob leaves an Indian environment where he is far wealthier than the orphans he is helping apparently just to meet an extremely wealthy Danish businessman (probably about as much wealthier than most Danes as Jacob is compared to most Indians) to secure a large donation. He then gets swept into a family wedding, apparently on impulse...
The plot is very (very) improbable - but then most movies are. Prepare not to ask how likely it is that such-and-such would happen!
It is hard to say more without spoiling (a pity - should movies be dependent on a key 'twist'?) but the lead character is not who you think it is!
