The parents have passed their socialist and survivalist ideals to their children. Ben considers most of Western society to be fascist, especially corporate America. He also believes that no one will or should be there for you, so you'd better learn how to take care of yourself. As such, the children have been subject to vigorous physical training; know how to deal with minor bumps, bruises, cuts, sprains, and even fractures; and know how to hunt, forage, and grow their own food.

I cant say much for this movie except that its good and i urge people to give it a try if you havent, i personally watched it 2 times, one alone and one with my mother.
But the most important thing i'd like to say this movie offered me, was a kind of happy accident, and that was the discovery of Noam Chomsky, whom i'd have never discovered otherwise (god knows youtube wont reccomend him unless you have already watched him), and for that i am truly grateful.
