We tell our kids they can be anything they want to be, and now and then they surprise the hell out of us. This winning and honest Belgian film tells the story of Ludovic, a boy who sincerely wants to be a little girl, and it superbly chronicles the ugly consequences of his innocent, heartfelt dream. The ups and downs of Ludovic and his family are real, there's no sense that a happy ending is guaranteed, and Ma Vie En Rose is a film of such warmth, humanity and understanding that you'll be delighted and touched beyond belief by the time the curtain falls.
