Heart-Warming Tale!

4 stars

07 Dec 2017

My Feral Heart is a heart-warming tale about a down syndrome man moving to a nursing home after his mother died. The cinematography is beautiful and the story being portrayed through the down syndrome character was unique and interesting. The down syndrome character really did steal the show at points like where his mother passed, you could really see the pain he was going through. There was a point in the story where the main character gave the Feral girl some food and she ate it in a very unrealistic way. I don't really think the movie explained too well who the feral girl actually was. The ending was vague and she just appeared in a field out of nowhere. There was a news story shown in the nursing home about some killer that at first I thought was foreshadowing but it never came back in anyway. The film felt very natural, every other actor did a good job of acting realistically.
