PINECONES cover image
This is a very touching story that reminds us of the importance of doing the right thing.

It begins watching two boys innocently tossing pinecones in the woods. Another boy joins them and convinces one to join him in an illegal activity, but mid way through the conned boy abandons it when his better self reminds him to stay true to his better self.

I enjoyed the way this film is constructed and the character development of Eli. This is a very relatable experience that most of us have experienced at some point in our life and the lessons of being true to yourself is well established. The acting is good, the direction is good, and the message is the best part of this short film.

The film's message is about staying true to yourself.

I give "Pinecones" 3.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 12 to18, plus adults. By Julie S., KIDS FIRST!

Eli and Ian are best friends. But something threatens their friendship: Ian wants to be friends with the "cool" kid, Hank. Will Ian let Hank get in the way of his friendship with Eli, or will he leave and become a full-time friend of Hanks?
