A great 'teenage' fantasy/story., 29 March 2004
10/10
Author: videojohn (videojohn@hughes.net) from Apple Valley, Ca.

This film was great. Talks about the trials of teenagers today. Really well done & written by a 14 yr. girl, who stars in it @ age 16.

Lot's of neat F/X computer graphics.

Although several "time shifts" are presented it all shows well looking at the picture in total.

A 'must see' for all young girls and should be shown in all Jr.High Schools throughout the USA.

Check it out today!!!!
