CGiii Comment

Moises Arias steals the show - a sure-footed, misfit performance...genuinely hysterical.

Those hazy summer days of youth...captured reassuringly through fine cinematography and damned decent script.

It oozes heart and soul...those entering their cantankerous era are urged to watch, to remember those days when life was sweet and oh...

A lovely, lovely film.

The(ir) Blurb...

Joe Toy, on the verge of adolescence, finds himself increasingly frustrated by his single father, Frank's attempts to manage his life. Declaring his freedom once and for all, he escapes to a clearing in the woods with his best friend, Patrick, and a strange kid named Biaggio. He announces that they are going to build a house there, free from responsibility and parents. Once their makeshift abode is finished, the three young men find themselves masters of their own destiny, alone in the woods.
