Synopsis
Cam Archer's short films perfectly capture the moody world of adolescence, the twin pleasure and pain of the teenage crush. Here he develops and hones his themes and styles into a captivating first feature. Protagonist Logan is 13 years old, and a dreamer. Soft spoken and isolated, he has a crush on an older and infinitely cooler boy, Rodeo Walker. With its day dreamy look and its little stabs of recognition, this is a must for anyone who ever felt the pang of loneliness or longing.
