1982 and Will, an outsider schoolboy, is being
raised by his strict mother who does not believe in TV. When a
friend shows him a copy of First Blood he is so impressed that they
decide to make a version for a competition. Honesty, tenderness and
visual flair abound in this very British view on growing up in the 80's.

Some Members' Comments:
Beautiful
Great fun, lovely story
Great digs, plus a refreshing innocent bravado.
Quite an organised and imaginative film - well acted by young people.
It went over the top after an hour.
Hopeless.
