source of hope

A beautiful source of hope. This is the basic, great virtue of this lovely short film. A film about past experiences, about self definition, about admirable drawings and a class mate sharing them to the others. Beautiful acting, great storytelling and nice end. Powerful for the wise way to reflect so familiar, for many, experiences fro high school.
