Beautiful film about difference.
Really beautiful film, deserves to be better known.
This film deserves to win many awards, but it won't because it isn't big enough in the modern scheme of things. The cinematography was stunning and the locations were strangely beautiful. Production was great and the acting was excellent. Once again Jaeden Martell was totally brilliant.

A good coming of age movie.
It's a good movie with great acting specially from Jaeden, but a lot of things in the story didn't make sence.
Touching
This is a touching story about a boy who tries to navigate a very hard life. It's not as bleak as it could be, which is a good thing.
"The transitory entertainment business just isn't what it use to be"
There's several underlying themes in this movie. From being an outcast, to someone feeling alien in their own body, the want to be accepted for being our true selves. But it all felt very literal and there were a lot of old and used tropes that dragged it down from what could have been an amazing film.
This film is a GEM!
I had the pleasure of catching this fun adventure tale at the Woodstock Film Festival. AWESOME CROWDPLEASER! See this wonderful little tale!
Did you know
- TriviaFilmed in September 2017, it took two years to be shown in film festivals (July and December 2019) and three years to get a U.S. release (October 2020). That's why Jaeden Martell looked so much younger. He was 14 during filming and 17 when it was finally released in the U.S.
- Crazy creditsThe credits feature a melancholy dance sequence featuring Mr. Silk and members of the traveling circus.
