Every moment of this film is delightful. Throughout the description of the daily life a little girl who suddenly finds herself an orphan and is placed in the care of her homosexual uncle, every little second rings true. The characters are wonderfully well depicted, from the painfully disappointed aunt to the confused boyfriend, the lovely grandparents and the overwhelmed schoolteacher. I found myself shifting from laughter to tears and laughter again more than once and I relished all the emotions I experienced through that movie. I will never forget the scene where Nina holds her school copybook in front of the window so her 'angel'-parents can see her good grades.
