G!VOICE Recommendations
Winning international awards around the globe in 2010, as well as nominated for 12 categories in the 83th Oscar. Awarded with Best Film, Best Original Screenplay, Best Director, and Best Actor.
There is one key message that the director constantly expresses throughout the film: “I have a voice, and a right to be heard”. Treating stuttering patients does not need professional medical treatments, but a person willing to listen, understand why they are inflicted with it, and help them. Through the story of Prince George VI, the film points out that even a person as high in status as he is, he still desires for someone who listens as everyone else. “I have a voice, and a right to be heard” also reflects the atmosphere of the modern society, the right of speech, and how they exercise that right.
