We really enjoyed this film. The characters were very believable and drew you into the story. It was very moving and I both laughed and cried. We loved the cinematography and how images conveyed meaning without the need for dialogue. The music was inspired and really added to the atmosphere of the film. The essence of the story was clearly conveyed through the narrative without the need to overly state it and our awareness was subtly developed as the story unfolded. The friendships were well developed and meaningful. The vulnerabilities of the boys were cleverly revealed throughout the film and the introduction of a female character added a different dimension to the relationships and a hint of possible romance. The story was thoughtfully and carefully crafted and left us reflecting on the issues it raised. It's a film for everyone but particularly important for young men to watch and reflect on. We congratulate Connor making this fantastic film.
