Is This the Real World

I first saw this movie on a plane coming home and I'm not ashamed to admit I got really emotional at the end. The main guy in it is the original Lochie Leonard and was in Puberty Blues too (Sean Keenan) and he is brilliant in it. It's a story with all these gaps in it where you get to work out that happens and then by the end you kind of realise you've been totally drawn into a family and all the stuff that goes down when things don't go right. It's all so real. School looks real. Home looks real. And the BMX riding is super excellent. It's not an action movie, it's an emotional story with heart and brains. Okay, so I totally get this is not a mainstream flick, but for something out of the usual this is a winner.
