DVD Review: Finding His Way Home Against All Odds
Summary: 5 Stars
A very entertaining film that takes you throughout Europe with David as he finds his way home. David having grown up in a labor camp is very new to the outside world, experiencing new things, relationships and emotions.
Going along with David on his spritual journey to enlightenment is very rewarding and satisfying, this is truly a feel good film that will captivate you and show you the path to what truly matters in life, overcoming any obstacle to find your way to the ones you love.
DVD Review: One of my favorite movies ever!
Summary: 5 Stars
I Am David (2003), Jim Caviezel, Ben Tibber, Joan Plowright
This movie is so touching that it is unforgetable after you view it. It's hard to believe that there are people in this world that do such evil things to other human beings. It is encouraging to see the other side of humanity shown in this movie.
DVD Review: A Spiritual Journey ...
Summary: 5 Stars
The story is based on one boys journey into freedom and love. However, as David discovers in the free world that nothing is as it seems, in the movie, we begin to realize that our perceptions are not all they should be. We begin our journey criticizing David's fear and mistrust, and in the end find ourselves realizing that until you know the full story, it is hard to tell who is good and who is evil.
Just as David has his journey, we have our own to make. David's begins in darkness and fear and ends in light and joy. Those who watch the film who are struggling in their own life will appreciate the hope offered in David's journey.
The movie is a definite PG because of the background theme of the Prison Camp and the evil David encountered.
DVD Review: Message of hope for young and old
Summary: 5 Stars
In 1952, an eleven year old named David (Ben Tiller) escaped from a Bulgarian gulag with nothing but a sealed letter, compass, bar of soap, and a knife. His initially anonymous benefactor advised him to "travel by night, trust no one, and do not show anyone the letter until you reach Denmark."
The young man is literally reborn as he travels through Italy. He's never been on a boat, eaten pasta, or smiled. Dreams from his years at the concentration camp haunt him. Yet, he grows as he accumulates miles and experience.
The story's riveting and heartwarming, plus performances by Tiller, James Caviezel and Joan Plowright are spot on. While I would not suggest the film for the very young, I believe young adults will find the story inspirational. The addendum, including the making of the film and the deleted scenes are not to be missed.

Description of I Am David
I Am David is adapted from Anne Holm's internationally acclaimed novel North to Freedom. It is the story of a 12-year-old boy, David, who escapes a Communist concentration camp with little more than a compass, a sealed letter, a loaf of bread, and instructions to carry the letter to Copenhagen, Denmark. David is thrust into the free world for the first time in his young life as he travels across Europe. It is a spiritual voyage of discovery, where David slowly loses his instinctual mistrust of humanity and begins to smile, share, trust and ultimately, love. I Am David addresses the cruelties, politics, and suffering of warfare while celebrating the resilience of youth and the unbreakable spirit of a child.General DVDs
