Director Q&A Following Screening
Leo is 10 and wise beyond his years. A solitary dreamer who seeks refuge in books. When the carefree 20-year-old Theo steps into his life, it forces Leo out of his shell. Despite their age difference, the two becomes best friends, helping each other face up to their responsibilities. But not everyone approves, and Leo’s father tries to break up the friendship. Theo reacts by whisking Leo away to the seaside where he nearly loses control of situations.
