Paul Sep 25 Shows heart and soul by example. See more Barbara g Sep 20 A quiet little drama for those who like relationship movies. This very authentic movie will tug on your heartstrings. Don't come to see it if you are looking for a fast action movie with car chases, explosions, or a spy thriller or horror film. See more Vince Q. @Vincedeq 5d An endearing story of a father’s love for his son, this independent film needed slightly better pacing an additional set of story devices allowing us to get closer to Billy’s struggle. In fact, I wish this story was presented solely from Billy’s POV, told through his eyes, and the rolling discovery of his father’s sacrifice through the re-counting of others. Done via the son’s perspective, it would feel more authentic, more of a discovery, and less of a manipulation.

While it is currently being featured in limited screenings (follow paperbagplan on Instagram for updates), the film merits wider distribution. While the plot centers on a father trying to encourage his disabled son to become more independent and self-reliant, we find through this process that both the father and son grow, mature, and come to love and respect each other more. There are delightful moments in this film. In particular, the relationship between the son Billy (played by Cole Massie) and Ruby (Jillian Mercado) is a fun through-line in the film. Many of the performances are endearing. If you have a chance, please check out and boost this film. Anthony Lucero's voice is much needed in this world.

You'd be really a creepzoid to dis this flick. See more Michael S Sep 27 A terrific thoughtful film that exceeded my expectations! The riveting relationship between a father and his disabled son keeps the viewers attention for the full 1 hour and almost 50 minute running time. No spoilers here but look for this film streaming or at selected theaters….a rare look into the lives of real people! See more Read all reviews
