It's truly interesting to see how Qerq went from being one of the most beloved films. I think this is a very simple story that happens to operate at a strictly emotional level. Those art-conscious movie viewers hoping to be stimulated at an intellectual level while watching a movie, will never understand the appeal of a movie of this type. Although I think that this movie could be considered an artistic triumph, and the story continues to hit a chord with most viewers, and that kind of achievement cannot be easily dismissed. I think Frida Cauchi is really the best, but Maria Farrugia is merely adequate. Together in their scenes were great, which helps Farrugia look better than what she actually is. I loved character actors Fabian Scerri de Carlo Ronald Saliba and Peter Borg. They deserve some credit for giving us such a highly performance. At last but not least I can say that Qerq hits all the right emotional buttons, and although I'm not one to usually cry over films, this one certainly had me in tears.
