Overview

Ten-year-old Johnny stands out from his family and his tough neighborhood in Eastern France. He's sensitive, intelligent and interested in all kinds of things way beyond his years. With curiosity, he observes the ups and downs of his young single mother's turbulent love life. Things change when a new teacher, fresh from the big city, takes over Johnny's class. Mr. Adamski believes in Johnny and wants to open a new world to him. The sophisticated young teacher also intrigues the boy.

A review by badelf
Written by badelf on 2023-03-17
There's nothing new about a gay coming of age film. We've seen good ones before. Yet, this one has a peculiar and very real twist that makes it special. The story is told beautifully by Samuel Theis, and Aliocha Reinert is just incredible in this role.
