What a heartfelt story! I love Boundless Imagination! I was prepared not to from the opening scenes and seeing the mother as so stern, but her about face when she discovers that her son is creating a story about the two of them turns it into something charming.
The storyline follows a boy caught up in creating an imaginary world when he should be studying. HIs mother walks in on him and, just as she is about to take away his toys, discovers that she is part of his make believe world and that changes everything. Beautifully animated, with very life like characters - both in and out of the story within the story. It is non-narrative, but the images tell everything. Just a beautiful short film all in all.
The film's message is about trusting your child to explore their imagination, you never know what might transpire.
I give Boundless Imagination 5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 8 to 18, plus adults. By Marissa S., KIDS FIRST!
