I have to go with the minority on this. Its a workable - even interesting - idea, but surely one major (and very interesting, even dramatic) barrier to an 11 year-old crossing Europe WITHOUT A PASSPORT is how the heck through the borders (Schengen only gets you to Croatia at best!). Its not insurmountable, but pretty significant - significant enough for it to be a pretty major part of a film like this, you'd think. But no.
Instead the drama is made up of daft, random, and at times very predictable, events that hang in the air and then get forgotten (like the theft, for instance) along with total fantasy nonsense such as the ending. I was even at a loss to work out who on earth the target audience was - children? Adults? Families? Cannot work it out...
Its like a first draft of a script that somehow got made without anyone so much as reading it through. Indeed its worse than that - its like a film that was made up as everyone went along, with every stupid idea thrown in without consideration for anything at all.
As for the acting... WTF? Did they rehearse at all?
I wonder - was this one of those films made as a tax dodge...?
