Boxed In is a delightful, thought-provoking short film about a young girl named Maddie (Cadence Schultz) who finds a magical box on her school bus. She must decide whether to do the right thing or keep it, prompting a hilarious mental tug-of-war between miniature versions of her "good" and "bad" self. Made by a mother-daughter team, the film features an outstanding, precocious performance by Schultz, whose expressive acting brings the witty script to life. Complemented by clever costumes, great camera angles, and a mischievous score, the film culminates in a fantastic plot twist. It is a perfect, fun conversation-starter for families about integrity and making tough choices. I give Boxed In 5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 5 to 12, plus adults.

After finding a treasure on the school bus, third grader Maddie bargains with her inner self as she decides whether to do the right thing and return the stolen box or lie and keep it.
