 Rated 8/10
Set in the underbelly of Florida within the shadows of a Disney World that seems more of a fantasy land than ever. This is a story of people doing whatever they need to do to get by, a day at a time.

The film focuses on a group of urchin children who live and play around a seedy motel. The kids are somewhat feral but loveable underneath their foul mouthed bluster. The child actors are excellent and at first the film is as close to a feel good comedy as you can imagine given the poverty involved.

Slowly though, the underlying hardship and desperation comes to the surface and you are left with an uneasy feeling of dread, waiting for something terrible to happen. Without giving too much away it's fair to say that it does and it doesn't and the last quarter of the film is pretty heavy going unless you have no human empathy.
