"A wondrously hopeful film. If you believe in the inherent goodness of human beings, it is the 'feel-good' movie of the season."
- Skip Sheffield, Boca Raton Tribune
"Compelling... Arresting...
This touching drama... is worth seeing."
- John Thomason, Boca Raton Magazine
"Like Homer's "Odyssey", the film "Anita" is the story of someone trying to find her way home. Anita's gentle devotion and humble tranquility eventually win over everyone who takes her in."

Synopsis: The film follows Anita, a young woman with Down syndrome (Alejandra Manzo) who lives a happy, routine life in Buenos Aires, being meticulously cared for by her mother Dora (Norma Aleandro). But one tragic morning changes everything when Anita is left alone, confused and helpless when the nearby Argentine Israelite Mutual Association (AMIA) is bombed (the deadliest bombing in Argentina's history). As she wanders through the city, she learns not only to care for herself, but touches the lives of those around her, from an alcoholic to a family of Asian immigrants.
