INDIAN SUMMER cover image
Interesting take on bringing two kids together to share their issues about their life situations and find common ground between them.

This short film, from Canada, follows two young teens, one girl who practices mime, the other a boy who wants to be an Indian. They meet in the forest, where they are separately escaping to as they search for their own identify. They form a bond, if only for a short while.

I like the sort of tongue-in-cheek presentation here and the droll presentation by the actors who never quite express any emotion. They are both quirky and their relationship with each other, including a surprise kiss, is doubly quirky. But, it does provoke questions about personal identify.

The film's message is about finding yourself and seeking comfort in another.

I give Indian Summer 3.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 12 to 18, plus adults. By Julie S., KIDS FIRST!

A young mime and a fledging Indian, both bitter, meet in the forest. Life will soon be a little sweeter.
