Dialogzitate:

[subtitled version]
Marie: [Rasmus is preparing to leave town] Did you talk to your son?
Rasmus: I went there. I can see why he despises me.
Marie: You can't go till you've made up with your son.
Rasmus: I can only make up with him if I go. My soul is so sick that I can be nobody's father.

Perhaps some people may find this movie a little too sincere. I, however, was moved deeply. Maybe it was the combination of seeing "The Whole Nine Yards" earlier that day, which treats the killing of other people as a comedic device. Cynical and sly, that one -- a little dose of tobacco for the soul. I hope that I never get so old and sophisticated to be untouched by a parable that treats life as precious, to complain that it was over told. Heart of Light is breath of fresh air!
