The most beautiful film about child labor ever. Somai plays with the scale of the eponymous garden beautifully, as it transitions slowly from a claustrophobic jungle of weeds, to an open patch, and finally to a vast field of flowers.

A very charming and effective look at childish curiosity and growth. Gorgeously-shot and deftly-written. The third act and especially the ending wasn’t quite as good as the rest, but mostly very moving.
