In mid-1980s England, Will Proudfoot (Bill Milner) sits outside his classroom because his strict Plymouth Brethren religion does not permit him to watch films not even documentaries.
He becomes friends with the wild Lee Carter (Will Poulter), who includes Will in his film project, based on the Rambo movie about a character in the Vietnam War. Although isolated from media, Will has a vivid imagination and has artistic talent, which helps Lee develop his film into a wartime action-adventure story and a search for his deceased father.
This is a cinematic surprise written and directed by Garth Jennings (A Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy). It’s a charming, low-budget independent film about friendship, loss, family, religion and reconciliation.
Both a sad and positive commentary on parenting, the film excels by showing the innocence and resilience of childhood, and the power of movies to express the inner life of children and tell stories of the heart. Rough and risky behavior and some problem language.
