NORA AND SUNNIVA

really like the film Nora and Sunniva. It is so heartwarming, shows such a new and different perspective, and also brings awareness to a topic not everybody knows about.

The documentary follows two young sisters named Nora (herself) and Sunniva (herself) Gram. Sunniva has low vision and Nora is blind. Throughout the film you see how they live their lives at home, school and play. The film is from Norway, with dialogue in Norwegian, subtitled in English.

This film is enjoyable because it is so touching. There is one scene where Nora's friends help her take off her snow boots because she can't. That scene is so amazing; it makes me feel all fuzzy inside. It is also very fascinating to see how different the girls' lifestyle is compared to mine. The quality of this film is absolutely stunning. The audio and video are crystal clear. The music choices are impeccable and the special effects are astonishing. The drawing style effects are so cute and appealing, they give such a home-y feeling to the film. The sets are very realistic. The house has just the right amount of neatness combined with the chaos of children. The school house is beautiful and I love watching them use the braille machine. The music perfectly matches the mood, especially whenever they use their imaginations and nice bright music plays. There are some very nice animations throughout the film. They show how Nora sees the world, which is so inspiring. I love that they show her perspective. The performances are perfect - Nora and Sunniva Gram are well chosen, especially Nora, she really makes me feel warm inside. The most outstanding part is the sisters' relationship. It is so adorable to see them help each other figure everything out. In one scene Sunniva is annoying Nora and, instead of lashing out, Nora calmly asks her to stop. Nora is such a kind older sister and Sunniva is so bubbly. They're the perfect pair.

The film's message is that people with disabilities can still have lots of fun.

I give this film 4.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 8 to 12, plus adults. By Sofia T., KIDS FIRST!

Nora and Sunniva is about two sisters who are blind. The girls have a black dot in the middle of their eye which grows as they get older, eventually the dot covers the whole eye and they become completely blind.

The film observes the girls in their everyday lives, at school and at home. We get to know the girls' personal interests through their imagination and we accompany the girls in their dream of flying their own kite. Through the film, you get to experience what it's like to be blind by putting yourself in the girls' situation.
