"This film captured our attention from the moment it started playing on the big screen at the Wheeler Opera House. What truly set it apart was its portrayal of the complexities of growing up in today's world: The young characters, each coming from different backgrounds, and the sense of community that developed throughout the film. The use of symbolism through cinematography and lighting added an immense layer of depth to the story. This film speaks not only to the youth, but also to adults who continue to suffer from the injustices rooted in American history."
