“Like Stars on Earth” (2010)
Recently released by Disney earlier this year, this award-winning Indian film wins the hearts of children and adult audiences worldwide. Ishaan is an 8 year-old child who struggles to find himself within the expectations of his family. Having a very loving and understanding mother, he also has a father who relentlessly compares him to his older, successful, ideal son. After being scolded by the many instructors at his school, Ishaan becomes a bully victim by both students and teachers. With almost no hope of understanding the difficulties Ishaan is experiencing as a student, one man stands up to give the child a chance at discovering what his true talents may be. This picture was filmed beautifully, with inspiring song and dance collaborations. Inspired by children who can be misunderstood at a young age, this movie allows one to become open-minded about the infinite possibilities and hidden talents that one may bestow.
