Just that day, she discovers in her bathroom is hidden a small box containing toys, photographs and cards that hide a child forty years ago. She decided to seek him and give him the box. If he is happy, she decide to dedicate his life to helping others. 

My rating: In my opinion, Amelie is a film that changes your life, it gives a different approach to present things in our daily lives. Its music, photography and beauty are captivating. It also has a great message, and today is much needed in our society: simply do good by doing good. I think it's one of the best movies I've seen in my life.
