And frankly there’s something squicky about the way the film takes what is, in the greater scheme, a nightmarish story about the immediate impact of a genocidal regime on a handful of individual lives, and reduces it to a youth romance with a bumper-sticker message: as Grandmère Sara puts it, “You forget many things in life, but you never forget kindness.” There’s a secondary message at the end that being kind makes you more attractive and more likely to get dates. There are a lot of real-world counter-examples to that assertion, but this is not the place to get into them.
