Audience Member This film is one that shows the true essence of the teenage years, when one is figuring themselves out. It shows this nicely by not relying on outside judgement but rather what lies in the heart. A very heart-touching, sweet film Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/28/24 Full Review Éléonore An intimate and beautiful telling of a story of escaping abuse, trying to find your place, reclaiming your cultural heritage, and stepping into your queerness. As someone who has had to do all of this (in a different context), I'm amazed at how sensitively and truthfully this is portrayed - and the measure of hope it keeps and gives. An instant favorite for me. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/16/23 Full Review George B A stunning and beautiful film about discovery, belonging, friendship, kindness, family, and love. Well cast, written, acted, directed, and filmed. An insightful look into the indigenous Mik'maq tribe in and around Nova Scotia with proper respect given to the LGBT narrative arc that never preaches and only illuminates. This is what one hopes for when spending time viewing a really great independent film. And it really helps that the main three characters are so very likeable. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/23/23 Full Review Roger C Disappointing. Slow moving and weak storyline. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 04/04/23 Full Review gay y Nothing bad to critique about, great indigenous representation, shows harsh reality of trans/queer teens trying to accept who they are, romance feels believable and sweet, very nice cinematography and relaxing close to nature theme. And the happy ending, its many peoples main criticism but personally i think this was the best way they could've gone. for once, indigenous and queer characters get the happy ending they deserve. I look forward to more of Hannams work like this. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review dave d It reminds me of a professionally done college film. It has some charm, some rough acting and for some reason it's nearly 30 minutes longer than it should be. As a love story it doesn't really work, but as a journey it has moments. The heart doesn't overcome some of the film's shortcomings. The resolution appears out of left field and while it is always nice to feel good, this story seemed like it shouldn't be as tidy. It is great to see Natives playing Natives and a film with people of color as the focus never hurts, but just with the film was a touch better! Final Score: 5/10 Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
