The film follows a young boy, Ethan, whose fears are overtaking him and he is having difficulty fitting in with his class. He runs into an older student who intimidates him, and runs outside to escape - only to be part of a group of students from his class. As he struggles to deal with his emotions, his classmates come to his side to guide and protect him. In the end, amidst of flurry of special effects that seem to be possibly pulling him away, his classmates rescue him and offer additional support. Good camera work; good audio; good editing. Among some of the best work we have seen from elementary school aged filmmakers.
The film's message is about helping others and allowing them to help you when you are dealing with issues bigger than normal.
I give Depression Vs. Happiness 4 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 8 to 12. By Julie S., KIDS FIRST!
