On a similar topic, very few films are being made today, despite its relevance in the modern world. The plot of this dramatic film fit in just 15 minutes of short film format. And very thoroughly. There are more and more teenagers who become victims of lustful adults on the Internet.
Once again, the movie reminds the viewer of one of the main problems of society - misunderstanding of children and parents, detachment from each other's lives, distrust. And the ending of this film clearly, piercing to the heart, screams about it. After all, the reason for what happened is not that the teenager is trusting and naive, but that under the gun of fear and embarrassment, brought up in him by the adult world and parents in particular, he was simply afraid... not of someone else, but of his own parents! Who else but their own son should ask for help when it becomes difficult for you? Stories are presented, as if some adult stole his phone, beat him, or just did something bad - would he share it with his mother or father? In these cases, it is more likely that Yes. But what should a teenager do when he realizes that his adult pen PAL is not really a friend, but just an admirer of his young body? Not everyone will decide to tell their father about this, and even more so their mother...
The film does not give us an exhaustive answer to either this or other questions. But it gives adults a full look at the new problems that an unintelligent teenager may face on the Internet. But I dare say that's not what the picture is about. After all, almost every minute (even if a little naive, but so clear to any adult viewer), a hint seems to light up on the screen: "Don't do that." Starting from the scene when parents very cruelly refuse to stop their son to go to the toilet, ending with the behavior of the mother, for whom it is normal to rummage through her son's phone.
The Czech creators of the tape addressed their message to the entire audience-both adults and those who are younger. Everything is as simple and short as possible for understanding. In some places, relationships even look unnatural, and especially, a strong constraint of a teenager in front of his parents. But families are different, and I would not find fault with the reflection of characters in this tape. The only people who should not watch this film are children of primary school age. And how unnatural already before the credits at the end of the hotline phone looks, as if teenagers have no confidence in their relatives or friends..
By the way, have you ever wondered why the movie has such a name? Into the mountains...
