The film tells a story of a divorced couple trying to raise their young son. The story follows the boy for twelve years, from first grade at age 6 through 12th grade at age 17-18, and examines his relationship with his parents as he grows.
Filmed over twelve actual years with the same cast, this portrait of growing up captures the subtle, unscripted shifts of aging. You witness the quiet evolution of a boy into a man through the mundane beauty of passing time.
