In order to care for herself and her "mother in-law" Ruth goes in search of a job. At first she couldn't seem to get any and then she stumbled on a group of people who worked at a winery and decided to join them. And that was how Ruth's love story with Boaz begins.

Just when it seemed like everything was working well for Ruth, Syrus shows up. And tries to destroy it all.

The Characters in the movie were exceptional and they really did amazingly well in delivering their roles.

• Phylicia Rashad as Naomi: Phylicia Rashad delivers a powerful performance as Naomi, the elderly widowed woman Ruth cares for. Her presence adds warmth and wisdom to the story, and her character's relationship with Ruth is particularly touching.

The cinematography The movie's visuals effectively captured the contrast between the vibrant city of Atlanta and the serene landscapes of Tennessee. The cinematography highlighted the differences between Atlanta's fast-paced environment and the peaceful surroundings of Tennessee, reflecting Ruth's personal growth and transformation. It supported the emotional narrative, conveying the characters' feelings and relationships through thoughtful camera work and lighting.

In conclusion, the movie reminds us that not every love story starts with fireworks and sparkles. Some start with truth, trust and even tragedy but in the end what matters the most is that we never give up.
