“Music is not merely entertainment -
it is survival, it is therapy,
and it is communion.”
— Film critique by Darwin Reina, Cinema View
This is what others said
"What makes the film so exceptional is the balance between the personal and the universal. The Medicine is not only about music as medicine; it is about life itself, and how we relate to the inevitable vulnerabilities of being human. Sarah Dienaar and Leonie Bos succeed in creating a deep connection with the viewer through genuine emotion and human relatability."
- Maike
"What a beautiful documentary, the story touched me deeply. A wonderful way to show how people who don't fit into the rigid system of our education, find ways to carve out a place in society that suits them and where they can thrive. And all of this accompanied by beautiful music. A joy to watch."
-Sandra
"The documentary Het Medicijn by Sarah Dienaar captivates and touches deeply. It is about much more than Leonie Bos's story. It reminds us of the power of our inner voice and truth, and how we can connect not only with ourselves, but also with others and the greater whole."
-Asher
"Sarah Dienaar’s film is more than a biographical portrait; it is a work of poetic observation. From the very first shots, it establishes its rhythm through contrasts: silence and song, stillness and movement, fragility and strength. The film’s title, The Medicine, proves not to be metaphorical hyperbole but a lived truth that Leonie embodies. Through the film’s forty minutes, music transforms from a profession into a salvation, and finally into a shared cure."
- Film Review by Darwin Reina for Cinema View
"The Medicine is not a film about fame, charts, or industry accolades. It is about resilience, love, and the redemptive power of art. Through its 39 minutes, it reminds us that music is not merely entertainment — it is survival, it is therapy, and it is communion. As viewers, we are not passive spectators. Sarah Dienaar’s lens invites us into Leonie’s world in such a way that her healing becomes contagious. By the end, we do not only admire Leonie’s courage; we feel part of the very movement she has created. Sarah Dienaar’s has given us more than a documentary; she has given us a mirror of what it means to heal."
- Film Review by Darwin Reina for Cinema View
Looove The Medicine and the message of using the power of our voice, it truly is Medicine - for yourself and for the world. Sarah (videographer) and Leonie (singer) have crafted a true masterpiece and I will watch it again and again!! 15/10 points for this incredible and inspiring work of art. Few movies of this depth are made nowadays!!
