Synopsis

Transition from childhood to adolescence can be a painful time, but also one of discovery, fun and liberation. Sick of their parents' embarrassing mollycoddling and outrageous sanctions, Joe and Patrick — plus peculiar straggler Biaggio — run away to build their own home in the woods, far from the adult world. Testing their newfound independence, they make a solemn pact to be their own men, boil their own water and kill their own food. This coming-of-age comedy finds the humour in the communication meltdown that occurs between parents and teenagers, and celebrates the joy of being young and free in summer.

What our educators say

"We are currently screening The Wizard of Oz, profound film that it is, and the last film Wall-E. It's been rewarding observing the KS1 6 year olds run the gamut of emotions from wonder to sadness to joy. "
