This beautifully acted and scripted film captured my heart from beginning to end. So many lessons to be learned in this age of social media "friendships," which are not friendships at all. Face to face, and the sharing of time together in the exchange of ideas, and hopes for their respective futures. The man, a British soldier, Sgt Dunlop, and the young boy, Proffy, who is in need of an adult male model because his father is otherwise preoccupied. Not a bad father, just not engaged with his son. Both the adult soldier and the young boy gave and received something in the conversations between them. Precisely what should happen in a friendship and precisely what is not happening in the lives of our youths today. I am sure I will be watching this film again.
