An IMDb reviewer wrote: Don’t let the format (16mm) fool you. This is a gritty and somewhat graphic story based on actual events which took place in Canada in 1959. John Robinson is a nice 14 year old kid. He’s good looking, a natural athlete and the prime suspect in a rape and murder case. The shoddy police and forensic investigation seals the boy’s fate. Child witnesses also sabotage John’s hope of being found innocent. The movie follows John’s harrowing experience in court but also explores the complexities of teen sexuality. The star is Andrew Skidd whose stand out performance is quite moving.
