| User ReviewCanem CCaught this film at the Rhode Island International Film Festival. It was one of those films that make going to festivals so much fun. An unexpected treat, the film's understated style feels authentic. Catch it if you can. |
| User ReviewIsaacIt was a moving film, but I'm a sucker for stories like this one. In life, it is often the small things that make the difference between happiness & depression, between living & dying. I like stories of triumph and finding ways to live. |
| User ReviewTabitha WA nice indie film. Boy is stuck in small town. Boy finds love before he takes that step in leaving to college. |
| User ReviewLee MPerfectly functional coming-of-age indie drama. |
