Kudus for taking on a difficult subject. Children of divorced families often have a challenging time adjusting to it and often blame themselves. This film offers an open dialogue among young people that is exemplary.

The story follows a group of young people, tweens and teens, who spend time together at a volleyball camp, only to discover that they have one thing in common - divorced parents. That leads to discussions among them and sharing their concerns that have probably not been voiced before.

The film is well made with good video, audio and editing. The cast all feel believable and portray their roles well. The discussions among them are the most critical part of the film and, as such, prove to be good role models that kids in the audience can relate to. Parents may find this helpful also.

The film's message is about communication and finding someone to share your thoughts with.

I give this film 3.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 8 to 12. By Janet S., KIDS FIRST!
