Reviews
“An imaginative, refreshingly originally told comedy about a" nerdy "outsider who fights for recognition in the turmoil of puberty. Behind the wonderful off-commentaries and funny, surreal sprinkles, a sensitive and respectful examination of childish insecurity, wishes and neuroses is revealed. "
