The thing I love most about this movie is its approach to the material. This story is a slightly cliched idea, but totally given new life by the sensational and touching performances. I was so deeply moved by this film and was wondering if anyone can recommend anything simillar, not necessarily story wise but, you know when you have a totally unexpected reaction to a film. Would appreciate other peoples thoughts or suggestions.
Thanks

In my world cinema class, we recently watch a series of movies involving characters living in a life of poverty or in slums. They were all fantastic. They were:

City of God (I'm sure you've heard of it, if not seen it)
Italianetz
Tsotsi
